Only a quick one tonight. Before I start I should explain my day confusion in my last post. The rainy run was Friday, the half run half walk was Sunday and really I don't think I intended to refer to Wednesday at all and where I have I probably mean Friday. Well I'm sure that's all just been made crystal clear!
Just back from running our regular Wednesday 6.1 miles and am feeling a little done in! So quickly writing this while Darren's grouting in the bathroom as I can't get in the bath til his done... trust me I need to... I stink... not even I want to sit by me and I have to!
So don't know what on earth's wrong with me tonight. The weather was perfect, nice and dry and cool with lots of lovely air to breathe so really I shouldn't 've had a problem but I found tonight quite tough. Way back in the days when I used to go to the pub all regular and everything, occasionally I'd drink a certain brand of jamaican inspired coconut rum and cola. Sometimes on such occasions I'd find this would give me a horrible feeling in my chest. The best way I can describe it is like there's a fist behind my solar plexus and it's pushing really hard outwards (oooh alien flashbacks!). OK sounds dramatic.. it's not at all, it's just damn uncomfortable and makes me feel like I can't fully breathe in. So that's what happened tonight which is pretty pants cos it was bugging me and making me feel uncomfy all the way round. At it's worst half way round it began to feel I had a rope tied round my bra line that just kept getting pulled tighter but persisting past that it lapsed back to jamaican rum syndrome.
With this in mind I haven't really enjoyed tonight's run but am happy as I still got round it. I just kept thinking I've done it before so I have to do it again - if I slow down or take a step backwards just once it could be a slippery slope back to square one and we've come far to far. Tor did awesomely fab again tonight, doing all the dodgy hills etc and we're still keeping to our PB time.
Well I refuse to moan and groan on anymore cos reading back through this it's so whiny and annoying I'm feeling the need to give myself a slap so I shall move on. Some positive thought's: Tor's sister-in-law has pointed out that we're running the best part of a marathon every week, my justgiving page donations have lept up today and I lost 1lb this week! Woo hoooooo! As for now, Darren's finished his little bit of tiling so I'm off for a bath...
