Girlflu

8 09 2007

And you lot thought I’d been slacking this week? No, not me, I had a bit of a sniffle girlflu but because I am a hardcore finely tuned athlete, I have attempted to run a bit this week, although Thursday and Friday’s efforts couldn’t really be called efforts as Thursday’s effort consisted of a mile with two walking breaks and Friday’s effort was similarly feeble with 20 minutes on the treadmill with two walking breaks.

But today I got up early early early after my extremely riveting dream about making bread to rectify this pitiful situation and not because I’m expecting delivery of a new shiny 22″ monitor, oh no. I got up early early early and went over the park and round the sports field and did, um, a mile. But it was a mile with no walking breaks this time, which isn’t bad for a girl with girlflu.

And now I am awaiting delivery of my nice new shiny 22″ monitor although I did seem to confuse amazon so I hope it does turn up, I’m even going to tidy the spare room so it doesn’t think it’s new home is owned by a scruff. Which of course it isn’t, as obviously this is the home of a domestic goddess. Only a domestic goddess would dream about making bread.

Stop making excuses, it’s not like it was manflu, which is obviously *real* flu :-)

Hey Shiny,

How’s things. Long time no speak. Hope u feeling better. Good to see you are still running. Hope the monitor has arrived. 22″ that’s LARGE. can u send the link to it on Amazon.

Came across a very useful site today called http://www.mapmyrun.com . It’s great for measuring your running routes and uses Google maps so its easy to use. Anyway see what u think.

Catch u soon.
