    Endorphins rock!

    I ran 2.5km at the gym as a warm up...

    Then I came home, put Nathan to bed and ran another 7km:j

    Wanted to do another 500m for a round 10km but just couldn't get my poor legs to pund out another step:rolleyes:

    11.7km left to complete goal in 2 days - cake!!!

    Its funny how people automatically expect people to have children. I kind of get it from a different angle that people constantly ask when im having another child grrrrr. Firstly I find it a bit insensitive, what if for some reason I can't have anymore children and secondly I am very happy with one child who is very well adjusted and not missing out!

    Becks,
    I admire your stance to not want to have children-frankly, I think more people should put more thought into having them. I love my children but it was MONUMENTAL how much it changed my life and you have to give a part of yourself up when you have kids.

    Next time they are 'moralising' smile and ask them WHY it bothers them so much YOU not having children?

    I do Sally - but its the 'you'll change your mind rubbish' at the minute - what can you say to that??

    It just makes me so angry that I have to justify my decision to all and sundry - rarrrrrrrrrrrr

    Whereas people just assumed I had made a 'mistake' having a fourth after a twelve year gap, when actually a lot of thought went into it....

    and felt no shame in asking me whether I had made a mistake!
