I decided to have a lazy day cos i cant aktully remember a day wher iv done no exercise at all since like before half term!

My gran came round for tea so that was good, an then I had a party in the evenin an got a bit tipsy =)

Lifesaving!!

I hadnt been for a few weeks so it was pretty hard!!
We did long tows, like four length swim four length tow, and i was properly knackerd afterwards!!

An on the warm up! ther was this new kid, an he was catching me up!!! =( I need to get better at swimming, everyone else is too good!!

Fell run!! =)

On the leaps!! I was pretty excited for it before i started =)

I set off pretty fast, and i was 3rd up the first hill! Then i lost a couple of places on the 2nd one, an at the top of that I was just like 20 seconds behind Lewis.

After that, I nailed it down the next hill, an i was catchin lewis up, then we got to the bottom. I couldnt see which way hed gone, so i asked BB the way!

He was like o yea i know a route follow me! an he seemed propa confident so i did!! i followed him like round the hill to his "route"

Unfortunately, BBs "route" was through like vertical forest, an evry1 else got to go up a path which had no trees on, an was pretty much straight up the side of the hill.

So, when i came out, Ben emerson, who was at least 20/30 seconds behind me at the last hill, was 200m ahead of me. I was like =(

Then i saw that naylor an bens dad wer ahead of me, so after I got to the top of the last hill, i couldnt see ben or anyone, so i tried to run fast for a bit down it, but then i was like =( whats the point an i just jogged back down

It was really anoyin an depresin =( cos i reckon I could have caught lewis up! but instead, loads of people who i know im faster than beat me.

So it didnt feel too great! just like crap and stupid an annoyed at myself =( I would rather have gone for a run tbh, cos i know i can do it, i just got
lost.

Its good that i was doing that well for the first couple of hills, but it just feels kinda wasted =(

I feel better about the fell race now =)

iv been doin like positive thinkin =D An i rekon i shid take it that its positive that i did good on the first too hills! =)

next time i just wont get lost =D

I feel really happy now again =)

Gymm! =)

Dont feel too good today =( Iv got a really bad cold, so iv got loadsa crap in my throat, so i try to get rid of it by like coughin it out, so now my throat feels really really like sandpapery and dry an stuff =( Not good!!

Soo i duno how good ill be for the fell race tomoro! hopefully il get better overnight =)

Nyways!! The gym was good! I tried to focus on leg weights cos thers ment to be lots of hills on the next few selection races, but i did some upper body stuff too =D

Funn! =)

It was really sunny so it was nice to be outside, but i cant catch or hit an i throw like a girl (aparently) so that wasnt too good =P

Then i went on the balance rope thing an i was winnin but it jumped me off the rope randomly =S

Rained again!!! =( like hailstony kinda rain! So ther were only like four of us actually playin, but then it got sunny! =D

Bit samey, but still good fun!!! =)

Fartlek!!! =)

Iv never done this before so i was like kinda excited for it =D
IT was like sprint up a hill then a little jog then downhill technique running thingy then another hill then jog down to teh bottom an we did 3 of those an one which was like a tiny bit shorter so kinda 4! =)

I was really tired for the first one! but on the second one i felt really really good and i was the fastest =D Then i was abit tired on the 3rd one again, then on the 4th i was like =) so i ran really fast but robyn (whos fast!!!) beat me! =(

It was really good tho! an nice to do something new!! =)

An also me an lewis hav decided wer gonna do a tempo run on wednesday in whinlatter!!! =D

Gymm!!

I was a bit later than usual today! ther was a big queue at sainsburys to get my bananana =)

Coach Ryan wasnt too happy! so he decided after our 100 pressups that he was gonna prove he was stronger than me! =)

So we went on the curl machine, an we wer the same, on like 55kg or sumthin like that! an then we went on the pull up machine an we both maxed that out so we wer the same! then we went on the shouldery thing but he beat me by 5kg!!! =O =*(

After that he decided that hed won, without even goin on the machines which i beat him at =P An went off to his swimming!! So i did sum situps, an pec stuff! an then it was time to go home for tea =)

Good fun!!

C • Might not come on tomos bec... 3

Colour Coded!! =) at cannock chase!

It was really good! I didnt make any mistakes for like all the course, apart from number 10 where it was meant to be on a open area, but it was on some reeds =S

I really really enjoyed it tho, even tho it rained! I dunno, i just felt amazinly good at oing =) an i didnt properly run fast at all, it was just like comfortable, cos i was focusin on not gettin lost like katrin says, so i think if i pushed, I could have maybe got quite a lot of time off =D I think I was 2nd out of the northwest people! Mikey caught Matt nash up at number 1, so they kinda pushed each other so mike took 45 minutes!!

Nice area, but loads of brambles! Oww =(

tired afterwards too! But we went to Maccy Ds on the way back! =P

After this, I feel like confident about bein able to navigate an stuff, so it all feels good for winnin that selection race in scotland, or the JK =)
