..grumble bum

..its official..i am such a grumble bum at the moment...anyway....................

i decided NOT to race the 4km bushfire run last night-REALLY wasnt up to it-was still feeling average...anyway so a bit of shopping and then met stu and the rugrats at OP for hot chicken rolls for dinner
..i left earlier than them and went home and sulked...lol.. not really but as mentioned, i was grumpy
the session today(which i MUCH MUCH MUCH wouldve preferred to have done at the track but was unable to ) ended up being 4x250s at the Tan pretty much flat out(always slower at the Tan :( ) the ground a bit moveable and many people to dodge and weave through and running way wide...but i did make sure each rep was slightly declined!!!so 44,46,46,46 with a long break between (1km worth of reps taking 3:00 min)
then off to watch claire who i train with run a great pb in the 1500(faster than ive actually run this season, and i train substantially faster than her, but then my 1500s are slower this year than last year :(

then home , played PLAY DOH with K and now awaiting my dinner to turn up...lol

oh yeah ewen-i had that thought as well... i am training in clodhoppers at the mo to see if that makes any difference, havent been training in racers or spikes for the last week..and my feet arent feeling quite so bad

..tomorrow is going to be a trial in logistics as stu and i both fit in runnning(me an hour-stu about hour and half), whilst one of us watches the boys and i also have to have left home by 10:30 so i can do some discus practice before being in the discus RELAY

Discus relay ? How does that work ?

Grumble bum? Poor Stu.

Great - stick to the clodhoppers (don't worry about the slow times) - imagine how fast you'll feel when you put on the spikes for a race! You'll run as faster than Claire.

Yes, I agree about the Tan - hard to run real quick on gravel.
