..yep..that was poo

..this morning's run...was ummmmmmm not exactly pleasant..i woke up tired with a sore back..thought the achilles was ok(til i started running) and very sore quads... am moving like a 100year old... anyway it was 10am b4 i got to the Tan which means it was kinda hot...and i was already a little dehydrated....

stu had put me down for a 60min/walk run easy.. so i set off...ended up doing 10.6kms which meant 5:34 pace.//but that did invlused walking up anderson st hill so it was actually a bit faster durng the running... didnt overly enjoy it ..and then decided id better be a goody two shoes and stretch as back not happy...

did some back stretches on the grassy area over hte other side of the top of the hill(or mound according to jh-the super hill runner) ..and then went alright some glute stretches.. so rolled over...and then im like whats that smell..i must be near some dog poo..look to the left and there is some dry poo..and im like..i dont think thats causung the smell... there was NOW a dreadful thought in my head(and hence the title of this post) yep..i had rolled over into some poo... i was sooo unhappy..i dont have a very good constitution so i was almost chucking!!!!i think i only - anway so i got up and walked off(after i wiped the poo off my arm) wasnt sure if there was any on my back so got a blanket on my seat so cookie would get 'poo-ed'.. was kinda annoyed at people not picking up after hteir dogs and then i kinda just started laughing cos i was thinking just how ridiculous i am! im sure the people i was walking past thought i should be committed

ok-back to yestrdays run..i feel much better about it today... there are 2 days a month where i find it particualrly hard to run the fast-the day before and hte day of TOM... well thats what yesterday was... it makes more sense now... thats why the 82s lap felt like a 78s lap- d'oh! so it makes me quite pleased now that i equalled my adult pb of 2:42.4.. and i did get a season best of 13:15 for the 3km..even if AV have me down for a 12:56earlier in the season(which i never got)


so today i went and bought a cute little dress..and some track spikes(jana zoom star) and some cross country spikes..as nike clearance i got a further 40% off..wow...2 pairs of spikes for $60(altogether-not EACH)

Sorry jojo, I'm resigning my post as "super hill-runner". You'll have to do it from now on.

Details on my blog today.

Yay, you got the Nike Rival's, I have those same XC spikes all sitting shiny and new in their box ready for the coming season.

Seriously though, who at Nike thought WHITE was a good colour for a XC spike?

Ooh like the dress!

And I absolutely detest dog owners who do not pick up after their dogs!

Good luck tomorrow!
