Happy 2010!!!!!!

Hello Everyone & welcome to 2010!!!

Firstly I'd like to wish you all the very best for a happy, healthy & fun 2010!!!

Wow, its here already & now the serious stuff needs to start happening! And I'm talking training.

It would of course start happening alot quicker if I didnt have a foot plus of snow to contend with!!! I went out for my long run today, was aiming for about 9-10 miles but had to cut it short to 5 miles as I was getting nowhere!! You can't run on the pavements because its far too deep or if its crushed down its far too slippy! And the canal was exactly the same! I have put a picture above of what the canal currently looks like. One minutes its fine then the next minute you slip & twist your ankle. I'm just not prepared to risk an Injury now.

Thank god that option 2 is back open tomorrow....THE GYM!!! Yipeeee

As I didn't finish my whole run today I am going to hit the gym before my Body balance class & do a few extra miles to make up for it!

The only problem will be the onslaught of newbie gym goers!! I expect the place will be packed to the rafters!!! Oh the joys!!

Still 44.8 miles todate & expect this to now start increasing at a much higher rate than it has been over the last few months.

Of course with it being new year I couldn't start it with out a few resolutions.....

1. In my battle to become a tonned athlete (yeah right) I am aiming to reach my 5 a day every day.
2. I am going to increase my water intake & aim for 2 litres a day by April when I am running much longer distances.

There are a few more but I am not going to tell you everything now am I ;o)

Today I have hit my 5 a day for the first time & I am on about 3 pints of water so far, which is why I am going to sign off now coz all I keep doing is needing a pee!!!!!!

Speak soon :o)
