A wet and windy Monday

Well what a lovely weekend it has been! Yesterday was truely vile, I am so glad I got my LSR (long slow run) in on Saturday. I am off out with my ladeezzzz tonight so I need to get my run in before I go. I have spoken to Scotty and he assures me he will be home promptly (yea right lol). I would like to get 45mins in tonight. If he gets home before 6pm then this is possible. I am going to go up the kingsway, down to the fountain, back up the other side, up the hill then down towards Hanham and round past Bexis school, round the block and stop when I get to the co-op. This is usually a 45min run for me. It also gives me a little cool down walk home. All we have to hope for is that the rain holds off until 7pm.

I spent some time today thinking about my training program. I then realised after that it would be a little different as the children are off for about the last 6 weeks of the program. This should, hopefully, work in my favour as I can pursuade people (my mum lol) to come and watch the kids for an hour in the day and I can get my running in then. It also means my Wednesday run isn't restricted because of Owens dance lesson. I think I may up my 2 week day runs until I get them to an hour and then up my weekend runs till I have done one or two of 2hours 20mins (how long I predict my half will take). If I manage a 4th run in the week I will probably keep that one to a 30min (5k) run. Perhaps just try to up my speed each time I do it.

I still haven't heard back from CLIC. I am no patience whatsoever though. How long should I wait until I give them a ring? It has been a week now. Perhaps midweek this week I could give them a ring just to make sure they got my forms ok.

I am off now to finish cooking dinner for the masses.
