Well...I know this will be a shock to everyone (least of which me) but I have been training again!!!
Monday - 20min run with my sister (which for me is much more like a sprint...) she even made me do stair sprints...on the upside, i realised that she is pretty awesome in the short term - but over more than 20 mins I come alive and she is starting to struggle, and soemthing that i need to keep in mind when my brain is telling me to stop running...
Tuesday - took my puppy out for some hill training near her house. Did about 20 mins of some undulating hills (words that i would before running would ever have put in a sentence) and then 6 hill repeats on about a 2 min hill climb...did it at night, so was really cold, but felt good while it was happening!
Wednesday - off (i worked late...)
Thursday - 10 min stair climb - this still kills me!
Friday - 1hr on the bike (very windy) cruised around at prob about 30k an hour (my little computer thing isnt working again...) but was judging it based on how fast i was going in relation to the cars, and how easily i was overtaking the other people on bikes! I then did a 20 min run on a pretty hilly course felt pretty awesome when i was done though :)
Sat - Off (worked all night friday, so sat was pretty much a write off)
Sun - Just ran from Jesmond park to the top of the john hunter (which is about 1.5k) each way. The up trip was done in 11 mins the reverse took 15...I am not sure how that works, but it highlights that i need to maybe work on the downhill part anyway....
still not feeling overly confident for the 10k in a couple of weeks, but we will see!!!!

hey, you're still doing more than me anyway. How crappy is this weather?!? Speaking of which, have things dried up down your way yet?
