Well I am tired, as my title says it has been a BIG weekend!! Yesterday saw us taking Basil the Beagle for a run in the morning to get the papers, then in the afternoon we did 18km together on our bikes. Then this morning I rode up the Blacktown Olympic Park (about 8-9km) for the 10km fun run. Ian was already there having run up to the park, run in the 4km and was waiting for me for the 10! We saw Mango, Blues Buffet and John (sorry mate, cannot remember your CR name!).
Ian paced me and did a wonderful job. I have been trying to get back under 1hr for 10km for about 12 months now. I went from 105, to 104, to 102 and now to 58.20!!!!!! Thanks babe, you are the sweetest, most inspiring man in my life!! I felt like I was going to vomit there for a while though, he really paced me well, kept at my limit for most of the race. Then I cycled on the M7 back home. My legs are soooo tired right now!! Think I am off to have a nap soon.
NTR has gone to the shop to buy me some M&Ms - he is taking NTR Jr to IMAX to see Spiderman 3 so I think he is trying to help me relax and enjoy the quiet house for a change!! I was craving chocolate and as always, he stepped up and offered to go buy it. I am in a mushy mood, that's right but I don't care - this is my blog and I can be mushy if I want! ;-)
A BIG thankyou to my best friend, my favourite runner, and my alround favourite person, for pushing me when I need it and taking the time to pace me and help me achieve a goal I have been chasing for the last 12 months. I better go before I make other people vomit....
P.S. I have found a name for my little girl - she is my aqua angel and from here on in, will be called Angel

About Me
- Mouse_and_NTR
- Quakers Hill, NSW, Australia
- Mouse is sometimes a runner, sometimes a triathlete and sometimes a lazy sod. She is trying to build herself a healthier life through exercise she enjoys. Nite_time_runner tries to be a runner. He is known to run further then he likes to walk back. He has completed many half marathons, and aims to reduce his half marathon time and may have a secret 6 foot track ambition for 2008. Often talks crap when running, much to the annoyance of Mouse!! Together we are happier and healthier than we were before we started running. We have made many great friends through running and have increased our social calendars with more healthy activities than eating and drinking!

You are going to have to try harder than that if you want to make me vomit ;-)
Enjoy your relaxing afternoon!
Hey, he almost made you vomit. Why shouldn't you do the same to us... :-)
Congratulations not only on breaking the 60 by a good margin, but more so on saddling up and riding home. Seriously fit!

Mouse, I must be following your performances in reverse. 60 mins is just a memory here comes 70 mins for me. Weight, don't mention it, please.
Well done. You will have to ride to SMC next series that is the key.
After reading your (& NTR's) post I am like my brother a diabetic. No, just kidding.
