We're just setting off to watch the Bupa 10000 - can't resist the opportunity to see two Olympic champions in action and the prospect of probably seeing a sub 27:30 road 10K!:D

Yay, Scorgybaby made it. Unofficial time is 1.08.30. Will wait for the times to go online and see what I actually did it in. Just watching the play back now to see if I can see myself. I know I am so vain:D

Well done Scorgeous! And you beat your previous PB by quite a margin. Fantastic result there! I bet Paula was right on your heels wasn't she? :D

I have had a break from running over the past week or so. However, yesterday I went hill-walking in Wales with OH. We did Cader Idris, which is just short of 3,000 ft. I normally struggle on the uphills, but not yesterday. I was off like a shot. It was a really hot day, very unusual in deepest, wettest Wales, but it was great. Really enjoyable and fantastic views from the top.

Ah see, my exams are over now, so I can concentrate on toning up. I'm doing the Mersey Tunnel 10km on Sunday and then the Whispnade Zoo 10km the Sunday after.

As soon as we've both qualified it's a date!

My inlaws live in Cheshire, so DH and DS are up there for the week, I was up there this weekend but drove back with dog last night for today's run, so me and dog are driving backup Friday night and then DH will drop me across at Liverpool Sunday morning and then everyone will meet me at New Brighton when I finish.

Sounds great, I love it when the family get involved in a run. What are the exams for? ACA, ACCA, CIMA?
