Super Sunday!

Hi blog lovers.

Yep, that's right, this old girl went jogging again, on a Sunday, before church! How keen can this old girl get?? What it is really, it's that the race is two weeks away! And I still haven't run for the whole of the 2.61 miles, let along run for 3 miles! I must look on MMR to check where the 1 mile mark is and see if I at least get that far without slowing down to a walking pace.

Smarty Pants was here too, (keen, keen, keen, Smarty Pants has deffo got the bug) Actually, I think we both have! Because I really wanted to go today, yesterday I was so looking forward to today's run, but I think its good to have a rest day, isn't it?

8.30 we were out of the door, IPODs firmly in place, water to hand and the stopwatch ready to record.

Today was sunny but windy. It always feel such a struggle in the wind to keep going. But I remember when it was a bit chillier and the wind seemed to have taken everything from me, today however it feels as it its just stopping me from going faster.

Smarty Pants has decided to pace herself today, after Fridays total burn out day, she jogged along with me until we were level with her road and then went into second gear, leaving me trailing behind her. Still it was nice company until then.

Uneventful jog today, I felt as if I was going well, but tried not to think that, because psychologically I know I would ease up on myself. And guess what? I did slightly.

My time today was 35.20 seconds! my average! I must try harder, I must try harder, I must try harder!!

Still, Smarty pants was only waiting for about 5 minutes for me today! Does that make me feel any better??? Mmmmm!!!! NO! because I know that she took it easy today, she paced herself, in readiness for doing an extra 1 mile!!
