Running that is! I had been doing some 10km and 11km runs of late, and my standard 7km super-hilly course plus standard Bikram and Pump etc etc. This morning I did 18km! Phew. It was tough. Took it easy as I've developed a bit of a cold, which I'm hoping isn't a mild case of swine flu as I just spent however long in Melbourne/Geelong. While I was a bit snuffly and snotty, and got a bit of a headache from the aching sinuses, it felt great! Especially when I finished, ha ha ha. Took a few little walking breaks to stretch my super tight hammies and have a drink of water and stuff. But overall, I was pretty happy with things considering I haven't really been hardcore running since the half-marathon.
Felt a bit disappointed that I've slipped back in fitness, but as I said in a previous post - nothing I can do now but keep moving forward! Figure in a few weeks it will all feel much better, so I'm looking forward to that.
Urgh, RSVP is bugging me. I got a "kiss" from some icky 52yo guy (I'm 30, hello!) and when I replied saying "I think our age gap is too great" or whatever, he sent me a nasty email saying "okay fine, I understand. I was just trying to think outside the square. It's your loss, other ladies will appreciate what I have to offer". Ew! Fine, offer it to other women ... I don't want some 52yo guy! I think my age limit (27-40) is pretty liberal, but I do want someone who's in the same generation as me and who can keep up with me.
Anyway, just trying to focus on enjoying the dating and stuff. Right now though, just enjoying the quiet life ... back to work tomorrow and then it's full steam ahead until ... well, forever! September when the Ashes are over.
