...oooh people to gnatter at(oops with)
..so i got to go on a long run today with some buddies ..woo hoo
tiger boy, eat em, Em, jh and pj.. oh and jh...to be diappointing, i woulda had to have high expectations? LOL..kidding..sheesh..youre a bit sensitive :)
ummmm probs shouldnt have stayed up til 12:30,when i had to get up at 5:30 and drive a million miles to get there..
Em apparently thought id be late(ok i may have taken >ONE wrong turn..but i was there in time... i did leave at 6 am(yes i was a long way away when the journey began)
..anyway set off..about 6mins in(which is usual for me) i needed a loo break but felt it was too early to make peoplpe stop so was feeling uncomfortable and at about 15mins had to go(lucky i had grabbed some loo paper..yukky yukky...) running about 5:20 pace(downhillish) at 40 mins i pulled the plug and said i was turning around..Em turned with me aqnd issued the boys with a challenge..keep going and hten catch us if you can :) judging by their faces on return, they tried..lol
..turn around and Em and i had a great gal's chat.. i was commenting to her that it was now FULL CIRCLE now, our rehab done together and now a real run together...just awesome..
very very very hilly(long slow inclines..i think one went for 4kms?????)..anyway all the stats will be on Em's
but it was basically 14.5kms in 80:20 ish so 5:31,5:32 pace
..boys rock in 11.5mins after us lol...but 'we gave you 19mins head start'.....lol
..off to jay's to get housesitting prepped :)
..back was fairly uncomfortable as soon as it cooled down..about 10 mins after run..not great now..both achilles are sore..left more so(of course)..and apparently stu wouldnt have been upset if i had done 90mins(d'oh he mighta mentioned that TO ME) since i didnt run yesterday
..a good day...dinner with my family... and my nephew has heard that my sister is OK and arrived safely :)

Great run- very jealous (apart from the loo stop) Hope the back eases off a bit. Hope the spare room at your sisters is prepared soon.
Sounds like you had a great run. Probably a good thing I didn't come, cos I would have probably turned around with you and Em and you would have missed out on that "girly chat time " :-)
Good to hear that you had an enjoyable run, a nice 80 minutes, well done.
Hope your back is feeling better now.
Btw the net calories thing you asked about on my blog = calories eaten minus calories from exercise.
Hope the back comes good jojo ...
See you for the next run as you reside out in the 'burbs' .... :-)
Take care
Eat Em
oooh, that hurts jojo.
Just caching up on blogs and pmsl at your very eventful week!! I lead a very boring life....
Thanks for the two stretches you left in my blog :)
