..welcome back jojo






.this is the miaow top from the gf


..ok i have wrestled and wrangled and smacked around the head that cranky hormonally imbalanced jo and finally i am back to normal! hehe
..had a quiet night/day yesterday..you know i really am very lucky 90% of the time, i absolutely LOVE being a teacher :) the guy i was going to have a hit of squash qoth cancelled so i ended up ditching(i wore heels two days on a row and poor little joey beans tootsies were hurting)
so this morning was family day at my school , so i was timer for the speed events..only missed one..lucky it was a D grade
..then after speaking with QC(qasi coach) who said i couldnt do the spring into shape tomorrow he negotiated instead and said i could runn 6ish kms as long as i kept it slow..im happy with that compromise..oh and the reason i am listening...is cos twice i have tried to get myself back from injury recently..and lets face it....twice i have failed! so i am heeding advice even if he is SUPER conservative..having said that NO WAY NO HOW could my achilles have done a 4km fast tomorrow
..so i did a 6.6km run here are the distances(ish) and pace/km(my lap pressing is not great)
1.0 5:15min/km
1.0 5:04min/km
1.2 5:02min/km
1.3 5:03min/km
1.o 5:06min/km
1.1 5:04min/km for an overall 5:06min/km
pretty happy with the run..ive returned to my older more flatfooted gait..my achilles just cant take the change.... first km was horrible.the achilles was very tender...stopped and stretched after 1km still sore for a bit then noticeable for a while and gradually got better... after the run..and a BIGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG stretch, it actually feels really good..see how it is tomorrow... it was very windy(i ran at port melb toward stkilda
thoughts:i might do zatopek 10km.. if i can talk em or someone close to my time to do it....cmon Em.. as nike once said JUST DO IT

quick rant: friend of mine from work(shes a bit high maintenance and just split up with her boy..and i get the feeling she is one of those who cant cope without a man) is like giving me the whole..jo..do you want to get married... to which i replied..thanks for the offer but im ok for now...lol and then she went on a bit more..seriously though.. i hate that conversation.. i do not sit around thinking gee i want to get married(i get the feeling that MAYBE she does)... i think first i would need to get my head around the having a boyfriend first..lol... when i explained the situation that i have just formally finished(physically finished MONTHS ago) after 15 years(christian) she did kind of back off a little..i have said it before..i would definitely rather be single forever than settle..if someone does not make me happier than i am when im single, then thats a deal-breaker...
also im a conchy little nerdburger..and i wish she wouldnt drop the f-bomb when students can hear (like every 2nd word)...lol im so precious


..oh and after my run..on the way home..i ACCIDENTALLY stoppped off for 20 mins and bought...ummmm..3 pairs of shoes..oops

If you have a quasi coach does that mean that you only do quasi training? You know I can count your laps- or borrow a little counter from the bouncer at Revolver and that might ensure you don't run around more than you should.
Love the miaow top.

Love the top - but then being a Cats supporter what do you expect. Seriously, you should have set up a merchandise stand outside the ground!

Now, is 5min/kms really "slowish" - that is still a reasonable pace you know.

And, please explain, how can you ACCIDENTALLY buy 3 pairs of shoes? 1 maybe, but 3? No, not even 1 come to think of it :-)
