MAD ABOUT RUNNING

Run in the Fog.

Thursday 15/06/06:

Enjoyed the extra 45mins or so in bed this morning, due to doing a night run today while my daughter was at her gymnastics class. Headed off at 6pm from the high school and did the same out and back route as a fortnight ago, up towards Howick, but also added a stretch of the main road that leads out to the beaches to give me a couple more kms:

Brisk walk warmup: 5mins
Steady paced run: 40mins (8kms)
Brisk walk cooldown: 5mins

In the lower lying areas and when passing the parks and when heading towards the water, it was really quite foggy at times, so probably a good thing that I was wearing my reflective running belt that I always use when running in the dark.

Several of the other gym club mums were heading out for a group walk tonight and they commented that seeing me head out for my runs on Thursday nights has motivated them into it, so that made me feel good!

Work has been hectic this week and tonight I have a splitting headache that no amount of Panadol wants to kill, so its off to bed for an early night.

    i always recommend drinking tequila or cuban rum for headaches (plus colds), then go to bed. if that doesn't make the headache go away, at least it makes you feel happy.

    i have visited your blog in the past and it's very inspirational. cheers!
