The Decline

[kfjatek]

One piece of Christmas cake contains at least eight portions of fruit, so that is healthy.
Then you have Terry's Choccy orange, that's fruit so it's healthy,
A nice bar of Fruit and Nut, more of your five a day in a nice handy bar.
And then you can have your treats on top of those , simples, n'est pas?

I like your thinking Jon.

+1 !!!

P.S. Isn't wine made from grapes... and grapes are fruit... (unlucky for you... I however will go off and imbibe one of my 5 a day...)

Oh and thanks for the big curry the other evening, and the GÜ pudding(s)

Yep. Focus is all you need.

I still working my way through the extra pudding YOU got which I told you not to bring.

Ergo, it's bendy's fault...

And yes guys, thanks for the encouragement!

Oh But the goodness is that before long I'll justifiably be able to wear elasticised trousers... Can't wait!

[scibby]

Aaaaaarrrgh - I feel so sh!t.




That is all...

I dream of running, literally...

and I've got a gazillion pairs of trainers taunting me everytime i open the shoe cupboard.

Anyway, last night's dream was almost certainly because many Malta runners/triathletes were posting images of them running in the Malta marathon / half marathon... All in their tiny shorts and strappy tops, sun hats and shades (it was 22 degrees-ish)

So anyhow I've decided it (the half) will be my comeback race in 2014. Target (random number!) sub 1:55 Oh and did I mention? It's all downhill! What a top idea...

Followed by the Vach, Hever and Malta OD. And I WANT a sub 24min 5km. And a 50-52-ish minute 10km.

I've also decided I'm going to go back to my wonderful ex-coach. If she'll have me!

I need to iron out finer details like when I'm gonna train with two kids, whether / if / what I'm gonna do for a job, etc. But how hard can it be, ey?

I wish the next few months would just hurry up.

When is the due date?

Trust all is going smoothly this time - especially as you are an old hand at it.

[scibby]

July.
Early July if I go with an elective. But I'm going to hold out and see what happens. So probably be late July...

No issues for me. But the NHS have a different view - I've got 3 risk categories:
- Gestational Diabetes (but there is no issue, never had a reading over the limit, far from it),
- Age (they think I'm old!)
- Previous section / traumatic labour (so they'd like me to go down the section route again, I'd rather not be chopped in half again, funny that...)

But as you say I'm an old hand at this and a whole load wiser than last time round...

[Bendy Ben]

Just give me the nod and I'll deliver it ( will be my 16th)

I shall keep some gear at home.

None of this hospital nonsense

Deal ?

[scibby]

I'm sure we had this conversation last time round...
Ben, my dear, in the nicest possible way, I don't want my sprog's first encounter in the real world to be with, er, you...
