Howdy peeps.
Day 4 eh?! I'm amazed I'm still blogging!
Anyhoo today was fun - beautiful sunny day and a jolly to Cardiff for work, that was nice (no stairs. Yess!) I kept the healthy diet on an even keel at lunchtime by having a chunk of cow and a jacket spud with a buddy. And I only used the 2 packets of butter on my spud. Good, me. Although it's just occurred to me that I didn't eat the salad garnish... I ate all my fried mushrooms though, do they count towards my 5 a day? Oh and I had a couple of deep fried onion rings too - they were slightly overcooked and crispy but they were tasty in all fairness.
Anyway - I hit a milestone today - I reached 10% of my £3000 fundraising target! Yey! Thank you to everyone who has generously got me here in less than a week! You're amazing! For those who haven't donated yet - why not?! ;O)
So - training.... urgh. Today I have been aching like an achy thing from Achesville. I'm sure I've been walking funny as a result. Well, after my healthy and balanced lunch I drove back to the office. (With the roof down. Sweet!) As I put my rucksack with my laptop, papers, chargers and various other work related stuff on my achy back I remembered that I am not using lifts until mid September... 160 stairs mind. ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY stairs from reception to the floor I work on. And that's not counting the 9 or so steps outside the building! It nearly killed me - I don't mind telling you.
Going back down - I thought my shins were going to fall off.
So Kilvey hill was certainly NOT on the agenda. Actually - I wouldn't have been able to walk up Kilvey hill today even if I'd wanted to - it was a little bit on fire...
Secret beach was calling. We love the secret beach, Dog and I. So we walked for about an hour and a half on soft (sinky) sand with my legs killing (approximately 2.5 miles) but it really was pleasant. Dog was belting back and forth chasing the waves, the sun was shining and some tunes were pumping into my head via my mp3 player. It was good.
*sound of bubble bursting*
Back to the tiring hilly leg-aching stuff tomorrow then. Meh.
Oh my god! It's 10 past 11! I'd better get this hair dye off my head before I end up bald!!
Lataz!
