Aaron has been home this weekend and been a wonderful distraction. Last thursday Courts and I went to Runners Club training and did the 5km run together... We really enjoyed it and encouraged each other and chatting the whole way... Not setting any speed records but going the distance felt really good.
Friday was swim squad and I managed the usual 20 laps even though I have been a sookie lala for the last few weeks and not doing swim squad.
Saturday was spent chasing the girls around netball.
Sunday - Cross Country day... woo hoo... Had a great run.. did my best time 36.00mins.. both girls did really well and improved their times too.. It is hard to get up early on a Sunday morning but we all really enjoy ourselves when we are there..
This week will be Runners Club Tuesday and Thursday night with Cross Country on Sunday.. Swim Squad on Friday and hopefully having everything crossed 'Stella' should arrive soon and I can get some practice on the bike in as well... Promise to post photo's as soon as she arrives.. Picked up the shoes to wear with her yesterday... sooooo exciting...xxxx

4.30pm - "Looks like rain girls... Hope it blows over before tonight!"
4.55pm - Sitting in the car in the garage ready to go to runners club looking at the sheets of rain..."Girls... Mummy doesn't want to run in this..Maybe it will be clearer in Bunbury!"
5.10pm - Arriving at Runners Club.. Looking at the blankets of rain - "I DON'T WANT TO RUN IN THIS... THIS IS NOT WHAT I SIGNED UP FOR.."
5.20pm - Running around the track with about 40 other women all laughing 'cause we are crazy enough to do this -Gemma says "Nanny should be here doing this with us you know.. how come she gets to miss out on the rain..?"
So seven laps later I complete the interval training... pretty easy actually..I really enjoyed it... some lovely people there... clearly I am not the only complete nutjob in the world.. So completely proud of the girls... they did so well..xxx
Daily quote: If I can train in blankets of rain ... there isn't any reason I can think of why I can't train... xxxx

I know I know I know... i have been very slack updating Confessions but that is only because I have been very busy training.. biking, running, swimming... my little butt off... Aaron asked me last night if he is going to recognise me when he gets home... Maybe maybe not..xxx
I have muscles in my legs that I can see.. woohoo.. I am getting stronger and fitter everyday... and I don't mind saying sleeping like a dead woman... Coach Sarah has me only running 3 days per week.. strict instructions that I dare not disobey... From this week I will be running Tues & Thurs nights with the running club and Sundays at Cross country.. The other days I am riding my bike when the sun is out and the exercise bike when it is not... We are now 6 weeks out from the Fun Run and with Coach Sarah's permission I am now going to be doing the 10kms at the Fun Run.. I am aiming to have Monday and Saturday's as my rest days.. if you can count housework and being Mum's taxi resting..
I promise to blog after Tuesday nights first training with the runners club coachs... should be suitably exhausted as they tell me tuesday nights are interval nights.. uuuggghh.. Love to you all xxx
