And again, no commitment to the blog.... fortunately there has been slightly more commitment to the training, but only slightly. I've just spent three weeks with my family in the very far, and very frozen North. (a lovely (?!) place called Redcar just north of Yorkshire). Well in that whole three weeks i went running twice (oh dear. oh dear oh dear oh dear); so i was feeling very unmotivated to go back to stage one yet again!

So i procrastinated for another week, my excuse being i was to worried about GCSE results, then being too busy celebrating. (Incidentally, i needn't to have worried... Straight A*'s !!!!!!!!!! Sorry, just had to brag about that!) However, Satruday came and i got up bright an early (well 9am) and went for a run. I did the same route as normal, but i was too tired to run any of the way back, which was dissapointing.

When i woke up this morning i laid in bed for nearly an hour debating whether to throw the towel in or not., but thankfully got up and went running. I am feeling very pleased now because i pushed myself really hard and ran a bit more than usual. Yay! i am also very pleased because i've lost a bit of weight, not a lot, only a pound or two, but yay anyway!

Hmm i debated for a long time whether to write that or not, incase i send anyone into a blind panick that i am becoming anorexic, which couldn't be further from the truth, i'm already looking forward to my chococolate ice cream after lunch! It's not like i need to lose weight, but in a strange way i enjoy doing it... it makes me feel really body confident, which i'm not normally. And seeing as i have never lost or gained more than half a stone, it's can only be doing good if i'm eating more veg and less chocolate!

i realise that little anecdote really had no point, but heyho. By the way, fellow Emily's angels, how much do you think you'll be able to run on sunday? becuase i have made a song and dance for ages about wanting to be able to run at least some of it, and at the moment i really don't know if i will be able to. Normally when i go running i run for between 30 secs and a minute, then wlak for about the same amount of time. however, my runs only last about 15 minutes, so theres no way i will be able to do 5k. Hmm....

Well this post is far too long and pointless, so i shall go now, maybe by the next time i post i will have decided how to tackle Sunday... Not long now!
