Thanks squirrel x

Hair cuts done after work, so much easier and cheaper having our lovely mobile hairdresser.

Still mega busy at work, winter doesn't feel over yet.

Hope work calms down soon Helen, those shifts are pretty exhausting and after a LD its a recovery days rather than a day off! Keep going with the marathon training, it's hard but you only need to run the marathon once. I've stopped entering races for now as training takes so much commitment, like you am enjoying other exercise and would rather do a couple of HIIT workouts and maybe1-2 runs a week.

HelenDaveKids

Yeah, it's definitely a one only thing and then can get back to enjoying it.

Just did a u gov and hit the pay level so £50 on its way.

Just got £9.20 off swim lessons, bonus.

Did my asda guarantee and nada, but you can't win them all..

Teeny bit off sb pay out, averaging about once a week with that.

Less than a week from payday and already over on groceries but that's life.

Off tomoz as working long on Sunday but do need to nip in... although going to do my run first. Then nipping to see one of my deputies New baby.

Run done 15.42 miles took 2:54 absolutely shattered and my longest run to date.

Amazing run! That's further than I've managed in my life, no wonder you keep popping up in my MFP feed :T

HelenDaveKids

It's absolutely exhausting though Ed, I have real.doubts that marathon is achievable as still 11 miles to add in and I'm literally over... The biggest challenge is fitting it in as when I've done a long, I'm just knackered so the rest of the day is blown. I suppose it's like my msc, I made a deal with myself, if I fail I won't feel guilty as it definitely won't be due to lack of effort. Tonight home from work, sooo tired but made myself go to the gym regardless.

Sb cashed tonight.

10 miles and chores done.

Scarily my slow 10 miles took 1:51 and the London marathon winner was 2:03... yikes!

My half week end sure went fast!

My OH has done the LM twice - he says that the crowds and the other runners drag you round the last 10 miles - he couldn't have done it without them
