Morning MK and FR
Good luck to all those running in the heat today - I've done my run today and it was toooo hot at 9am!
I woke up with a sore throat and a bit of a sniffle and am still not sure whether that and the odd aches I've had for a few days are the result of a viral illness (it's almost exactly two years since my last dose of the cold) or the effect of scrubbing ceilings and ripping up carpets and tearing off 100-year-old skirting-boards. Whatever, I'm not particularly unwell. I did run this morning, but only to the newsagent's (about 400m from home) with my son. Not wise, with a mildly crocked ankle and wearing floppy old sandals.
I'm trying to do some writing between putting coats of varnish ("light oak") on the beam that runs across Ivor's bedroom. To my surprise, when I removed the woodchip paper it scrubbed up beautifully. Now I have to decide whether to grit my teeth and chip all the Artex off Kevin's ceiling to expose the beam there, or just cover the entire ceiling in smooth plaster. No hurry, though. It will wait until Kevin has moved into her new room - about a year at this rate.
Poor Kevin shot herself in the foot about half an hour ago. Tinkerbell "found" a silly toy croquet set we've had for many years, and asked permission to play with it. I said yes, but Kevin intercepted her on the way out and said it was hers and the little ones couldn't have it. So I said that in that case the one Internet connection lead in the house was MINE and she could hand it over right now and take the croquet set to her bedroom and I hoped she would get great satisfaction from looking at it in its box and knowing that she was preventing her siblings and the kids next door from playing with it. Meanwhile, they've mocked up a croquet set with an old tennis ball, some bricks and the Swingball bats.
Any news from Benz yet?
I am going to lose weight this week by hook or by crook!
Have you been running today Vrap?
Somehow my brain just ain't in the mood!
i think that sub 3:15 autumn marathon to qualify on GFA for FLM 2004 is out of the window, and in any case I may need to do sub 3:00 now which is out of the question.
I could only get a GFA place if I was in my sixties. Maybe if I lied about my age and put on a grey wig...
Having a break from running suits me because I get other things done (like tearing up the house). It's just so tedious getting over the detraining effect.
Any more marathon plans for you or is it just see how you feel?
I'm not doing any more marathons this year. The training is too disruptive, and although I'm convinced of the health benefits of running within the normal boundaries of human endurance, 26 miles is just a fraction beyond those boundaries.
I did hope to get my half-marathon time down to 1:45 by the end of the year. I still think it's possible (current PB just over 2hrs). We shall see!
Or maybe I'll just toddle round the GNR and Windsor for fun and concentrate on paint and fancy stone floors and spend my Sundays looking at ten thousand variations on the theme of the White Ceramic Bathtub. Bring on the Crimplene slacks and little short-sleeved pastel-pink knitted tops with matching cardis.
I might even go to Dublin just to watch
I'm having a good session now - apart from chatting to you, I'm writing an article about something on which I know zippo, and it's just pouring on to the screen. I'm sure I have a couple of half-finished problem page responses hanging around on my hard disk too, so I might knock them off while the going's good. Or I might take my son to B&Q. He wants a chandelier in his bedroom, and a door with a stained-glass skylight. That's fine at 9, but in six years' time he might regret it. Maybe I shall be able to prod him in the direction of something more manly...
Its a warm 'n
Got out and did a steady 65mins on my roadbike before lunch
But as i say im slowly building up cos i just filled in the entry forms for 2 Tri's later in the summer
