32 years young I am today. 🙂

I feel very fortunate to be where I am and to have all that I have. This week has been really good for me: a good interview for a new job / attachment in work led to me getting it. I start in 2-3 weeks time. A good time for a change for me I think.

I’ve been lucky enough to become a running coach and hopefully help others to get into running and love it as much as I do.

I’m on track for my training for the Barrathon in about 10 days time and I got all of these presents for my birthday today, before breakfast in bed and a customary run later on. 🙂

I got a nice new running outfit: another pair of my favourite Nike tempo shorts and a couple of marching vests. And some nice brightly coloured swear bands. I got some ck summer perfume, some earrings and some chocolates. Oh and a super egg cup holder thingy lol.

I got 5 books in total, mostly about running and recovery, and one about eating and exercise smarter to be slim and another about setting up a personal training business.

At first glance, this one looks like a good resource for all things running:

This one looks really good about how important rest and recovery are in training:

This one is for an idea I’ve had, it’s very americanised, but it should give me some ideas for the next 3-5 years for me:

And this one, again American, might not be as good as the run less run faster one above, but looks good anyway:

I did have plan of going to the coast and flying a kite, but it’s pouring here. So we’re off out for a run in the rain before lunch and dinner out. 🙂

I think I’ll wear my new shorts!
