Anyone got any spare energy?

19 09 2006

F**k me, that was hard! I seriously wanted to give up after a mile but ploughed on, didn’t quite manage the 2.5 miles that was on today’s schedule but close enough and I’d finished a lap of the park and before I knew it, my feet had taken me through the front door to the sofa. I’m going to need some energy to kick in on Saturday, anyone got any spare?

As I was plodding round the sports field, the little voice in my head telling me to stop this running malarky and go home and get my dinner instead piped up, so I started thinking about pizza and I thought, I know, me and Gary could have a little bet on Saturday, and whoever finishes in the fastest time buys the pizza afterwards. But then I remembered that many years ago, we used to play pool for pizza, and anytime we had the bet, I always lost and not just because I was seriously crap at pool, as sometimes I did win, but never if we’d bet pizza, so it’d probably be a good idea not to mention that idea to him. Although he reads this blog, so I won’t have to mention it to him. But although he reads this blog, he never leaves a comment, and since he’s written three novels, you’d think he could string a few words together and come up with a comment instead of copying and pasting parts into emails to me and then commenting.

Am resting now until Saturday. Pizza, here I come! Oh, there is some running involved on Saturday, not just pizza. :-)

Not going near Lucozade, it’s made by Smithkline Beecham (or whatever they’re called now) and they test on animals. Evil, evil, evil people.

Militant veggie rant over :-)
