    Aww poor you hypno it sounds like you're having a really hard time fitting everything in at the moment - could you go for a walk in the sunshine perhaps to get some fresh air instead??

    Or if you are really tired can you go back to bed for a little while this afternoon??

    Hope you feel better soon!
  • I've been deliberating over this bloomin' Garmin all weekend. The best deal I can find for the 305 is £145, or I could just go without the HRM and save £40

    I am the most indecisive person ever - Help!

    Maybe I should just go for a jog, and hope I run into an epiphany? lol

    No idea D_S - although if I had a spare £150 I would go to Paris or something like that rather than spend on a bit of kit - but thats me ;)

    I don't think I'd make it all the way to Paris. Although, I'm sure the Garmin would let me know when I got there lol

    I've cured myself of wanting a Garmin d_s, having convinced myself that I needed a 405 and couldn't possibly run without it I went to my local running shop and tried one on yesterday. It was like wearing a big, fat bagel on my arm. :rotfl: The guys in there didn't even try to sell it to me; said they were too big for women as they tended to slip round the wrist!!!

    Becky - I'm glad the run went well; take good care of that leg though. ;)

    Hypno - I recommend a little sitting in the sunshine with a cold drink (and some chocolate!!!) :D

    Today was going to be a well earned rest day, but the combination of lovely weather and a bit of gentle cajoling by a certain young lady resulted in a 9 mile journey around Battersea park.

    So 2 weeks of very relaxed wind down running awaits leading to marathon day in 14 days time.!!!!:D:D

    Doh, my suggestion was no good then :D Oh well, perhaps a good sleep will do instead; I'd offer to have some choccie for you but I don't have any.

    Hope you're back to full strength tomorrow. :D

    Body wasn't having any of it, so turned into an 8 mile interval/fartleg session.

    18 miles Tuesday (if body agrees)
