Ok so now i’m back….

…well been missing in action for about a month now, after completing that 10k back in May I just couldn’t get back into any exercise, healthy eating or anything for that matter, have felt really down for a few weeks but just can’t seem to put my finger on what the issue is.

I think i’m afraid to lose weight - there ive said it, I seem to just get the feeling that I’m expecting my life to change for the better when I am slim, but there is this part of me that thinks what if it doesn’t, what if things are still the same and I don’t move on with my life and stil stay stuck in this rut that I feel I am in.

So I have decided that I need to knock that thought right out of my head and just give it a real go, if my life doesn’t change in the way that I expect then so what, at least i’ll be healthy, fit and able to at least wear what clothes I want.

Right am off now to do some housework then wil be back to get some goals set.

Thanks to everyone on here for their support and inspiration. xx

Whohooooooo new PB new PB new PB

Thanks so much to everyone for the fab messages about the 10k this morning I felt a hell of a lot more positive at the start line and………………………………….

1.35.00 yep I smashed that damn 1.40 barrier at last i’m soooo over the moon you would think Ive won the lottery or something I can’t stop smiling.   Oh I am going to be such an annoying “did you know I beat my time” work colleague next week lol

Pics and stuff to follow. :)

4 hours and counting to 10K

Sorry not been on here for a few days but has been a really busy week.

Well about 4 hours to go till I stand cold, shivering and dreading this 10k, as Ive said previously I have done 3 10k races before but I have mostly walked them and my times are (ahem shocking really).  But have raised a bit for charity so that is the main thing and I always finish them no matter what it takes.

  • Great Manchester 10k 2008 - 1.44
  • Great Yorkshire Run 10k 2008 - 1.40
  • Great Manchester 10k 2010 - 1.41
  • Great North Run (this is a half marathon but just my 10k time) - 1.42

I must like the number 4 a lot lol

Anyway I would love to break the 1.40 barrier and go for 1.30 but am just not feeling it.  I know that when I get there the atmosphere will pick me up a bit and i’ll just have to get on with it.

Oooh and going for a cocktail (or two) after, looking forward to that :)

Will let all know my times when I get back.

Good luck to everyone doing races today.

You too, keep up the good work you are looking great.

Now either I am going insane here I could be hallucinating due to my lack of caffeine today or I have just seen a little mouse run halfway under the dining table then back out into the hall again - aahhhhh i’m not frightened of them at all as it will probably be a little dormouse round here but I can’t find it now so it could be anywhere and I really would like to know, but then again did I actually see one at all.

awwwww where is it.  Hopefully its gone out under the front door, bet I don’t sleep tonight now lol

Yep I sometimes feel exactly like this too!

Is that really the future queen grocery shopping?

Apparantly it is, atta girl don’t forget the loo rolls!

Well I got home from work and I………

ran and ran and walked and ran a bit more ooooh and voted and then ran all the way back home from the polling station - only about a mile but its a mile that I ran rather than drove! oh yeah

As soon as I get home from work i must…….

run, run, run, run, throw up, run, run, run, run, walk, run, run, run, breathe, run, run, run, run oh and run.
