Running Commentary

See? I told ya March 31 2006

I ran today.
In the rain.
It was a short 5km run. It was dreadfully hilly. Seriously people H-I-L-L-Y. And i htink I may even be slower than before (not quite going backwards…but close!).
Also I think my neice my start running with me. She says she wants to “learn to run”. Good! I’m sort of starting over anyway so let’s do it together.
She’s 20 so you know how that goes. In 6 weeks she’ll be kicking my ass.

so I walked 5km twice this week and ran it once. Next week I’m aiming for 3 runs of 5k….and the week after I will slowly start to increase.

I am such a loser. Starting all over again.

ick

Here I go

I’m going for a run.
a
R-U-N.
And it’s going to be short.
And it’s going to be slow.
And it’s going to hurt like hell tomorrow.

BUT I AM going to run.

It hit my like a brick to the head yesterday. All of this? This extra weight? This constant low mood? This lack motivation to get my ass off the couch?
All my fault.
All of it.
Too much whining.
Too much sloth-like behaviour (no offense Philip)
Too much slug like activity.

NO MORE! I say. Today I clean the livingroom and then, sporting running gear and hat I will hit the road in the rain! A chance for my new leaf (which is actually just an old reused leaf) to gather some water and dust itself off.

Also? My hair? ok ok…here comes a LITTLE whining.
I HATE the colour..hate it!
I didn’t want FROSTY…and now I think it’s frosty. I like softer more subtle highlights. I don;t think I was really clear when I told her what I was after. oy..now I’m a little stripey or zebra-ish.
It’s FROSTY!
I hate it.
wah.

I give! I give I’ll tell you ANYTHING!

Why do we have thumbs? — so we can pick things up
Why do we have tongues — so we can taste things
Why do we have legs? — keep our feet on
Why do we have noses? — so we can smell
Why do we have doors? — so the dogs don’t run away
Why do we have houses? — so we stay warm and dry.
Why do we have beds? — it more comfortable than sleeping on the floor
Why do we have dogs? — someone to keep the guard the basement while we are away
Why do we have Dads? — good question
Why do we have yards?
Why do we have driveways?
Why do we have stairs?
What does “not really” mean?
Why do we have cups?
Why do we have apple juice?
Who made that table?
Why do we have hair?
Why do we have shoes?
Why does it rain?

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I got my hair cut today. FINALLY and added a little highlight here and there.
my hairdresser was off her game today. She poked me on the nose, dripped water in my eye, sprayed me in the face with hair spray and swatted me with the towel she was dusting off the chair with.

gee I hope it wasn’t something I said.
