Power Songs...

I've decided to update my running play list and include a few new Power Songs to help me get to the 10k mark in under an hour.... It has been hard work the last few weeks, with the weather trying to stop me from achieving my goal and of course my injury seems to be trying hard to rear its ugly head again...

So I have now updated my play list to include some old favourites and some new ones.  So my new power song list its a bit of a scramble, and no they are not too slow to be power songs, if you know them you will understand why I have included them... 

Power song 1 = Mind Demons by Suzi Q
Power song 2 = Sealed with a kiss by Britney
Power song 3 = Black Velvet by Alannah Myles
Power song 4 = Gorilla by Bruno Mars

Naturally my planned night out this weekend with a group of girls is going to be chaos and is certainly bound to cause some disruption to my training, but I haven't been out on a night out in far too long and I think I am allowed to "let my hair down".  Of course the question is what will I wear... I think I know what I will be wearing, but I may freeze just a little if it is still as cold as it is now..... Hoping for a miracle.

It has been a busy few weeks not only at work but at home too, so much so I haven't even been able to get stuck into book 2 properly, I will need to start finding some time to get to this soon.. 

For now I am looking forward to a good Zumba session tonight.  I've done pretty well though, to think I have 5kg to go and I will actually be back to the weight I was before I had children... and at my age I would say that is pretty good....  Wouldn't you??

Another night on the Town.... Can i handle it !!!!

Yes it seems my younger counterparts have surfaced and are keen to go out again this Saturday night.. So am I up for it again???  Why not.  I don't get to do this very often and I'm sure I can handle one more night out on the Town... and besides its a long weekend ahead so I will have more time to recover... Of course now  I will need to find something to wear.... Any suggestions??? Thankfully I wont have any snow to deal with this weekend - well so far there is none forecast which means I wont freeze half as much..  and of course it will be safer walking around in heels.. Well some shopping is on the cards the next few days I think.. Question is can these young ones keep up with me???  I hope so - but they don't seem to make them like they used too...

Run Run Run!!!

Sunday 9 June - my Race for Life.. I was ready, even after my little holiday, even though I didn't get much running in during the holiday I did a fair amount of walking and I managed to be good and not over indulge in anything other than Thrill Rides :-) Got to Abington ready to hit the ground running so to speak... It was a cool morning overcast with a slight breeze blowing.  Everyone around me had coats and jumpers on... I didn't need one I was so excited for this run... Run started and it was going well,  however, I don't know why so many women decide to start with the runners in the front of the race only to end up walking the rest of the way... due to this I had to overtake large groups of walkers along the way who tend to walk on the flat even path.  This means I need to overtake them on uneven surfaces, half way round I managed to twist my ankle. This wasn't going to stop me finishing the race though, so I carried on through the pain and completed it in 7

The day after the night before...

Well I survived the night out and had a great time... Even though I literally froze my butt off while walking from one place to the next... I stuck to the plan and wore my chosen outfit, and was glad I took the black leather jacket with to keep me warm during our walk from one place to the next.. Started off with a few drinks (a couple of glasses of wine and about 3 Raspberry sours shooters before we went out), meant that i didn't feel the cold too much - I'd hate to think how it would have been if I was completely sober. The only downside to the evening was when, at one of the venues, I went to the little girls room to look for my friend who's birthday it was, and after making a wee* (excuse the pun)  pit stop myself, when I returned to the bar I noticed that the group of 8 or so had left... No way.... They have left me behind... I was not happy..  although I had an idea as to what the next stop would be, I had no idea on how to get there and in which direction I s
