    Oh dear, well let us know what the Dr says...not nice.

    If it's any consolation, my training has been pants lately. I need to be running at least 4 times a week and at the rate I'm going, I shall be walking the 10k in Leeds.

    I think I'll be in my car driving round the damn thing!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Good news BlackRuby x

    Excellent time Sammy! I feel like I've gone backwards with my running and frankly, I am stressing about Leeds. Not only that, I am leaky again today and fed up with tidying the house and the kids trashing it again.

    In a funny way bunny you've just cheered me up. I spend my life going around this house tidying stuff, cleaning the kitchen, doing laundry and as soon as my back is turned it's all trashed again. our hallway is some sort of dumping ground, I have 2 baskets for shoes so why they are always scattered all over the floor I'll never know. My tumble dryer is in the hallway too and there are always baskets of clothes down there, if one of the kids goes to get something clean out the rest of the laundry ends up on the floor. When I open the door to people they must think we are mingers.

    But whenever I see pictures of your houses they always look perfect, mine only looks tidy when everyone is out and I've just finished cleaning.

    oh and as for running, at least you go and do it. I don't do running, in fact I don't do walking unless I have to :rotfl:
