First week of training

4/3/2009

a little hectic, but i am sure it will settle down, i took a quick inventory of what kind of shape I am in. Not good - I have a cold, my knees are sore, my back hurts and i have torn a hamstring.

So business as usual, I will try to ignore them (zinnia says no chance, I am only happy when moaning !)

Training this week has been:

sunday: adventure race in cumbria, 10km run, 20Km mountain bike and 1km canoe - we hardly covered ourselves in glory but we did get round - www.outside-adventure.co.uk/blog

tuesday: 45 min run
wed: 1hour swim - I am also training to swim to the isle of wight in july, so will be needing to increase my swimming times as well
thursday: 1 hour run, forgot my headtorch so was slow an awkward at 9.30pm
friday: 45 min run

on a brighter note, all the flowers are coming out, spring has definitely arrived and herefordshire looks wonderfull.

What am I doing ?

On the 4th June I am taking part in a 65mile run for Project65.

Why ? I hadn't planned on doing any runs this year but as my mum phoned and asked me I thought I best oblige. I feel very privileged to be able to take part in this event. My stepfather Bill is an ex para-trooper and has not been too well recently, this event has really fired his imagination and he has already supported me by paying my entrance fee.

Both my parents were in the forces and my stepfather's brother was a sergeant navigator who died in the war so I am delighted to be involved in the D Day commemoration.

"They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them."
