It has been a while, hasn't it? My apologies!
Today I received my welcome package from Nuffnang, so it is with great embarrassment that I once again embark upon the adventure of regular blogging.
About running, a look into the future:
COME ONE COME ALL!
This weekend we're doing things differently. We're running on a Saturday (ooo, aaaah) and we're running at 945am!!
YOU can all sleep in!! This is actually to accommodate my work schedule, I'll be up from 5am, but enjoy the rest in my stead :)
To make up for it, can you meet me at my work? Personal Best, 356 Norton St Leichhardt, where Norton meets the city west link. We'll walk up the hill and then jog gently down the hill to the bay run, (cos my knees KILL) and you can drop off whenever and wherever you like!
The die-hards amongst us, and those training for the half marathon, will be running the following route:

I have an event to dash off to afterwards (which I'm sure I'll feel like after running 18kms.. yeah) but I highly recommend the Perry St Cafe for a cuppa and brunch once you've had your trot. Its faaaaaaaaaabulous.

Followed by a look into the past:
We ran almost 17km on Sunday morning. In heat and sun and wind, up hills and stairs and through throngs of people along the shore. I hurt then and I hurt still. I was out of action for a week with the flu and apparently my body is of the opinion that a spin class Friday night and a long run Sunday morning were too much and too soon. As a consequence, I'm unable to run with the Kirribilli Runners tonight, which I'm missing for the third time in a row and am very unhappy about. On the topic of things I'm unhappy about - my cat. She has taken to sitting on my keyboard and mauling me for typing instead of patting. I'm not sure how to remedy this behavior - because I just can't give pats all the time.
Anyway, my knees are very sore and so is my shoulder. That was definitely the toughest run of my life, the arm and the knees both hit me half way. Tonight I'm stuck running laps of the grass at Centennial Park... I hope I can make it all the way around on Saturday!
Next post will be about food and social activities, not running. Promise!
Talk to me, readers! Don't make me beg..
