David - Caz, Actually if you post on the training forum even when you're not running then it should make you feel guilty enough to get out there!

What: one hours tennis lesson
Why: because my coach says that I cannot move up with all my chums unless i pull my socks up and heckling at the back during lessons will no longer be tolerated

WW I was told just calamine, and bicarb of soda baths. But if I get it I shall be swallowing everything and rubbing in anything I can find!!

PB, Piriton is an oral medicine, not the type you rub in, it certainly helped my two, Chicken Pox is not very pleasant, and the spots are everwhere.

PB - I had chicken pox at the age of 29, its a nightmare and no amount of lotions will stop the itching!

Martin I should be very embarrassed - not run a step since 19th October. I think all my aches are just about cleared up now so I guess its time to build a new schedule.

As I'm on the road for 4:30 am tomorrow I guess it will be Friday before it starts!

I should be out doing 35 mins tempo run at track but too tired after two days work. I will shift it all up to weekend to keep miles up

So, a pretty mixed bag for the forum training today eh, but enough people like MM to kep us on our toes! Chicken pox - good you're getting it out of the way while they're small PB. No 'granny always said' type remedies to pass on alas.

What: favourite xcountry route, at 75% WHR (target marathon training effort, well that's the theory)
Why: gorgeous day here, and haven't been off road for 10 days due to the weather mainly.
Got back to the car and couldn't believe I'd taken 3 mins off my previous PB (set about 2 months ago) without thinking about it.
Moral - don't chase time, it won't want to play. (Anyone else find they never set PB's when they plan to?)
Last rest: yesterday
last hard: Mon

Shock and Awe

30/10/2002 at 19:07

What: Swim, Sauna, Jacuzzi
Why: Still recovering from playing football against a bunch of thugs who kept mistaking me for the ball. I loved football before I took up running - now I don't! WHAT HAS HAPPENED?

Oracle - why do you go by that name? It wouldn't be because you work with the eponymous RDBMS now would it???
