I'm back from being gone from when I said I'm back...

Now I tried to be back twice before, but my heart wasn't really in it, then I was actually doing loads of running and was sufficiently focused to start blogging again - time to get my buzz back.

I haven't run in too long and only started running today with a 2mile walk run either side of 5-a-side footie

It ain't easy, it ain't easy.

46 out of 46 runs/walks consecutively. I am now over 1/8 of a year. The last two days have been completed at a little before midnight which is a tad excessive but I am very busy atm and desperately don't want to give up. When I get to the stage where I ...

On and on and on and on....

I walked yesterday, I cut my knee open at footie on Monday and, after 3hrs of football on Sunday my legs were destroyed and needed a recovery. I still marched along at a fair pace and walked 2.4 miles in 35minutes but felt really good about myself. I ac...

Everybody get up...1,2,3,4

I don't know why I temporarily fell off the blogosphere - I knew I was incredibly frustrated at my illness and then mega busy with show week last week but still - I want to try to blog every day - it is cathartic. The best news is that I am still going ...

Its opening night, Its openin...

Ok, so its happened now, amazing buzz, with lots of coughing, followed by tiredness and questioning how on earth I will keep this up - any wonder I have been so ill. I have experienced genuine anger at my illness these past few days, I am not accepting ...

Its getting better all the ti...

Well I can nearly walk without being out of breath. Chest infections officially suck (the life out of you) but I am going back to work tomorrow and feel a lot better. Still quite angry at the world for costing me all the fitness I built up but I am elas...

Yesterday... all my troubles ...

Second day in a row I am blogging a day in arrears. Very nearly didn't walk/run yesterday - after nearly collapsing at Tech rehearsal. I am struggling - very angry at being ill and not able to have the fitness I feel I have earned - want to be at school...

I keep holding on, I keep hol...

Today (yesterday - I accidentally laid down after my bath at 8.30 and woke up this morning) was difficult. I am still struggling with this Chest Infection and have a horrid cough and breathing is not great. I have drunk soo much water to try to shift it...

Don't wake me up....:

Unbelievable, my tickly throat turn into a massive temperature which completely ruined my comedy night last night as I was struggling to survive the evening all I wanted to do was sleep and I was up till nearly midnight. This morning I woke up having ha...

Quality, I possess some say I...

Difficult to get up this morning, I (again?) have a tickle in my chest and feel exhausted but am determined not to give in to it. Got up at 5.45 and by 6.15 I was on the road and running. 24mins 51 later and I've run 2 miles and walked another half to c...

Every Morning when I wake up

It feels quite nice to be able to write my blog before 7am because I have already done my 20minutes. I "only" walked it but the way I see it, my legs are very tired and so am I, walking for 20 minutes is still better than staying in bed and not walking ...

Empty shell I used to be shad...

I nearly made a massive booboo tonight and fell asleep without blogging my run post - which seeing as I have promised myself to run and blog every day would have messed up the streak which now stands at a monstrous 24/24 days (or 3.4286 weeks if you are...

There's a place to be, if you...

Today's mood 3/10 I got my run done with a record 4 of us from the 27 at training deciding to run the 2.1 mile warm up together. My legs were very heavy which annoyed me given that I thought I'd rested them and the achy shin thing is doing my head in bu...

I'd really to be alone withou...

Today I am really delighted that I put in a caveat. If it wasn't for the fact that I was allowed to walk from my 20 minutes I would of lost my streak today. I decided at the start that as long as I do 20 minutes expressly for exercise purpose and walkin...

Been working so hard, I'm pun...

In the last 21 days I've had some very difficult runs, today was one of the most difficult for a different reason. The actual run itself went really well and I really enjoyed it the thing I found hard today was actually getting out in the first place. H...

Crazy, can you believe it he'...

20 out of 20 achieved and in awesome circumstances. I got up at 7 and had a very productive morning, then at 11am got the dreaded email that football was off. Ordinarily that would have been the prelude to a miserable self-indulgent binge fest where I p...

You got me losing my mind, my...

... well I say beats, it pounds and as my lungs gasp for oxygen The tiredness took hold today and after a long day where I enjoyed teachin, was productive in my frees and got very angry that I'd cancelled plans to attend after school detentions which th...

I am exhausted... too many evenings of 5.45wake up and 12.30 to bed is not good enough. My body is talking to me and I am becoming more in tune with it though... It said I need more sleep, more water and better food. I am too tired to argue! There were ...

Try to stop my dancing feet b...

Little mini moan - blog post titles aren't long enough. Moan over, feeling pretty good today - finished my run (17 in 17days loving it!) and did 2miles fast with a slow walk to unwind over 7 more minutes (takes me over the 20minutesa anyway) - shocked t...

Keep on with the force don't ...

Enjoyed my 2 miles with Callum today - only one player out of a club of 57 players could be bothered to run before training which irked me some but still. Run was steady, about 2.2 miles in 20 minutes - chatted and relaxed went quite quickly. Am struggl...

Don't take us all too serious...

Firstly - thank you for the kind words of support yesterday and today - I needed it. Everyone has hiccups and I often struggle at the end of half term. Still one day of 30 under my belt - taught reasonably well, including some efforts at what I call "pr...

Every now and then I fall apa...

Today I ran angry... very angry I am usually a very placid person - I keep happy and don't take things too seriously but every now there is a chink in my serenity. I still did it - 2miles running in 17mins (you can tell I was angry!) and then a slow wal...

Outside a new day is dawning....

Ok, so I'm not in America, but I had to use that song as it was the subject of the dance rehearsal I ran to and from. I was rubbish today, I wallowed cos football was called off at the last minute and I wanted to play. Still, got some work done then wen...

Makes me that much stronger.....

Thanks for making me a fighter! Today was one of the most inspirational runs I have completed - as you may know if you bother to trouble yourself with my inane ramblings daily, I challenged myself to complete a 4miler today and in my head I kinda wanted...

and I've never felt this way ...

Today I came very close but resued it at 11.15pm, probably not best to do that again. So started with a late night and early morning as Magellan sadly died. Vicky needed lots of love and understanding so I did my best (pretty good by man standards) Tire...
