Long time no blog......
Well, well I have missed you lot. Its some time since I last blogged earlier just before that remarkable day which is now a mere memory. So much so, its taken me so long to put those trainers back on and head out the door and pound the tarmac again (yes, we do have tarmac now, a newly resurfaced country lane - should be great in the snow!!!)
Still looking to move house to somewhere flatter and BEFORE winter (fingers crossed as theres an offer on the table!)
Had a reasonably fit week, managed a three mile downhill run (my god!! however did I manage 26??); a couple of one mile swims in the local lido - i've managed to keep to my once a month outdoor swim for 2010 so far and have just been planning a November swim - yippee that'll be another challenge to be ticked off. Oh, and I went out cycling - not fit enough for triathlon - maybe that'll be for 2011?!
Current challenge, a toughy........ an alcohol free September - so far so good, lol.
Hope you're all training well and I do intend to catch up with some of your blogs soon, not sure whether many still contribute to VLM 2010 section?? Or how many are now blogging on 2011 - can't be long now before the 2011 entries are announced, and not sure why but yes I'll be watching for the letterbox drop again (more from fear I think!!)
