Never EVER EVER EVER have I been so relieved to simply stand up!
My hunky is not necessarily totally dory, but it is normal stiffness if you know what I mean; nothing that remotely resembles any major injuries. So it looks (touchwoodtouchwoodtouchwood) like we are still good to go.
Not wishing to tempt fate though, so it's heavy strapping on the knee and cancelling the plan to go for another run tonight. Running a marathon may be insane, but I'm not completely stupid (only partially).
So it's hotel room, the second half (fell asleep) of 'Taken-2' and a Nando's double chicken breast burger with large Peri-Peri chips. Not a bad way to spend an evening.
I am a little worried though. So far this week I have been favouring the extra half hour in bed as opposed to having my usual porridge breakfast, and add to that the fact that I have run out of Cup-a-soups (so that's lunch out then) means I am one meal a daying at the moment. That can't be good can it? Well, maybe it's something I need to see for myself to realise it is in fact, not a good thing to do!
But hey, twingeless knees.........result!!
WELCOME
Hello there everyone, and welcome to my blog (hats off to 'Blogging for Dummies' for teaching this dummy how to....you know!).
I am overweight; make that very overweight. I think the technical term is 'morbidly obese'....ouch! Over the last few years I have had a few health warning shots, enough to make me realise that although there is nothing going on with my health that can't be reversed; my time is running out to do something about it before something really bad happens.
So this is my journey to health, and the plan is an ambitious one. I want to lose weight, and I want to get fitter; fit enough to run the Manchester 10k in May of 2012, fit enough to run a half marathon towards the end of 2012, and then fit enough to run the London Marathon in 2013, where the blogging journey will end at the finish line down the Mall.
I write this in the hope that the words and thoughts of both myself and readers can inspire me when the journey gets difficult, then hopefully people can be inspired by my story; believing that the most difficult journey is possible.
I make a promise to you that I will be honest - if the wheels fall off and I have six pizzas in two days, I will come clean - and I will do my very best. Share it with me.
......Wish me luck!!
