After four weeks of being in full-on marathon mode, my stomach has officially morphed into a bottomless pit - somebody feed me! I'm hungry all. of. the. time. We're still trying to keep it as healthy as possible, though - anyone else out there who gets immense satisfaction out of buying (and devouring!) a trolley full of fresh, colourful produce? We're so into strawberries right now - yum!
My long run went well last week - no mid-run bathroom stops, hallelujah! But let's not kid each other: 18 km is far. And a marathon is even further... Hopefully I'll be ready.
Will decided, of course, that, in exchange for his brand new electric blue birthday shoes, he'd give me a cold. Thanks, Honey. It appears that the worst is over, though, so hopefully it'll be all systems go for this weekend's long run. And until then there's a whole lot of foam rolling and (higher grade) planking going on...
Seven weeks to go!
(Did I mention that today is COOKIE day??)

Enjoy the cookie day!
ReplyDeleteA solid 18 km: congrats, you are on the right way for a good marathon.
Thanks so much, Stefano - I really appreciate it! And that cookie was GLORIOUS!! :)
DeleteSo many colds in your family! Enjoy the cookies and good luck with the training this weekend :)
ReplyDeleteUgh, Lisa, I really take great care to try and stay healthy, but with Will working in a hospital and Miss K in playgroup, there's always plenty of germs going round... But I trust that this is the last one of the season - summer is on its way!! :)
DeleteHope you get over your cold soon.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jeanette! I'm SO frustrated right now, but what can you do, right? :(
