raining but i still got out
yep the title says it all
starting yesterday went to the gym to try and improve my general fitness, i did 15 mins on the bike 15 mins on the treadmill 25 mins on the cross trainer and 10 mins on the rower plus various weights and felt pretty good afterwards no aches nd pains so thats a start
today i felt good... but the weather here didnt agree with me !!!so i waited and waited and waited to no avail as the rain didnt stop... so i bullied myself out the door and thought just go for it and i did !!!! thats another 3 miles under the belt... still not comfortable with the breathing and my music tonight that i ran with did me no favours at all so thats another job to do.... but now for once i actually feel tired this is a first for me being a night shift worker it tends not to happen in the evening
i have had some pasta and the dreaded banana for an after run meal for those who dont know me i hate bananas but force myself to eat them as they are meant to be good for you although i think some jelly babies may be a better option and they taste yummy ..
gonna see what the weekend brings for those of you running be carefull and enjoy it the rest of you take care ill be back soon :-) x

Way_Too_Slow 'I love running in the rain - much better than running in the heat we get down here! If you don't like bananas, have you tried chocolate milk for recovery after a run? I great combination of protein and carbs - and it's got chocolate in it. What could be better??' added 17th Aug 2009
