Gym training - running

Gym training is going well, but still struggling with the ankle. I was suppose to do a 3 mile run for Nike yesterday but this was a round a track and I am the slowest person to run in the world, when you run around the roads no one knows if you are last but on a track they can see.

Added to this I have only just started running again after suffering injuries this year and so not really up to running against others, so with my friend who also is not in to track running we want for a 5 mile run, that was good and I am glad we did. I want to try to do the wirral 6 miles and that is where I want to put my focus , my training.

I watched Mo running his race on Saturday so amazing, watching the closing ceremony yesterday for the olympics brought tears to the eyes we have some amazing sportspeople and if there is something you can learn from them is that it takes a lot of hard work and determination but you can achieve your dreams. I know even though I am not a sportperson that last year to run the Liverpool full marathon took a lot of work by myself amd my Personal Trainer but I did acchieve that goal.  The hard thing to do is what do you do next when you have been so focused on that goal and than you have done it. This year its been a lot harder as the injuries have prevented any further running in marathons, but we have worked towards new goals. Steve has steered the training towards developing strength and this is working.

To my daughter - ABBA

This is the story to my daughter, the next part I am working on is the chorus, for this as it speaks of her slipping through my fingures I have continued with the time we want fishing together, we had fun, actually we where awful at it and when the man laughing at us told us if we caught a fisg to kill it by hitting it we where both horrified. We are both animal lovers so the fish want back in to the sea, in fact we are selves caught nothing that day, but we had fun.

Gym Training

The other day I got back up to running 5 miles, I ran the best 5 miles I have done in training for a bit not only did my ankle not play up but I did a good time for me.

Training has gone very well, perhapes I am inspired by the Olypmics I did not think I would be, but I love the Cycling and the rowing, the gymnastics and the runners. Its interesting the way the BBC have set this out as they look in to the training and how much work is done to get to the standarded to be in the Olypmics, the tears, the highs , the lows.

I have in the last week done a very good training week but yesterday in PT I was tierd and my performance dropped, but  even so I worked hard and oh boy do my abs hurt today. So great that it is rest day today. I am hopping that I can finish the year which has been full of injuries with the ability to do a really good 10 k in the Wirral/ Liverpool marathon at the end of this year.
