Morning!!!
Off to course this morning and get free lunch - have decided to tube it there because I dont want to arrive all sweaty so thats £1.60 but I think its worth it
Went for a 9 mile run yesterday - my longest since the marathon and it was sooooo hot but I got round - am a bit achy today so am going a 4 miler home nice and slowly
Also had all my big bills come out now (rent anyone!) so now have £450 ish for the rest of the month with one bill to pay (loan £109) so thats fine - spent a bit more than I meant to on entertainment this weekend and food so will cut back next weekend and the weekend after when I am at Leeds so that takes me to 18h and I'll paid on the 23rd this month - dont think I'm going to be able to overdraft as well this month though as I have to go the party for my sisters wedding this weekend and need to pay OH some petrol and half of taxi fares - but its all good...
Annoyingly - they've closed my CC so now I cant see it on my online banking - idiots!!!! So now I'll have to ring the bloody number on the 17th to pay it even though they told me I could pay it online still *rolls eyes*0 -

Okay all in all had a good week
Ran 36 miles - am very tired today and enjoying my rest day a lot!!! Got my 10 mile race on Sunday :eek:
Have £270 left in my account - next two weekends I am at OHs and travel is all paid for so thats good - the weekend after that is payday so am going to buy some new trainers on Saturday as my feet are aching a bit - have also discovered that the Blacks I walk past on the way home stocks my insoles so I can pick some up before Saturday as they have got very thin...will nip in tonight on my walk home and see if they have my type and size
Got to pay some money into my ISA that I set up for nephew as well0 -
Bought new trainers and insoles and a new running top for £82 so now have £188 left which should be fine for the next few weeks - got no major purchases, loads of food in just need some fresh salad and thats it really0
-
LOVE the new trainers and the new training regime
Had a great session this morning, but was a bit naughty and bought lunch today - must bring in lunch tomorrow!!0 -
Morning!!!
Am talking to myself again but anyway
Have let the money stuff slide a bit this week so am joining Hypno's £20 challenge from Monday
Running is going really well though - 20 miles so far this week (4 days) and starting to get back to my old pace, may or may not run tonight (am supposed to be on a rest day) might be a good idea to ease out some aches from yesterday after work with a 4 miler...hmmm, have my race on Sunday (10 miles) so will at least get to hte mid 30s but would quite like to get to 40 miles so I can ramp up again next week to 45
Also American friends are defo coming over in August so I get to play tour guide = very cool!!0 -
