It has been a long stressful and sleepless weekend and I can not believe it is Monday morning. Friday was not too bad after training until the Estate Agents called to say we had been gazumped on a property we offered the full asking price on. Hence quite a lot of tossing and turning that night wishing the vendors all sorts of good fortune!  Saturday night a considerate neighbour had a very loud celebration so not much sleep then, Sunday the anticipation of training with a weekend of lack of sleep meant more lack of sleep.

Then before you know it Mr White arrives – not quite as cheerful as on  Friday and looking slightly more tanned which makes me think he did not get as many runs on Saturday as he had forecast! I of course mentioned the fact he must of been standing around in the sun quite a bit , it did not go down that well surprisingly.

I really did struggle at first and did not think I would even complete our normal running route. It took all my reserves of energy for the twelve step-ups on each leg on the very very high park bench which felt like it was about ten foot off the ground today. Then I seemed to get into the swing of things and managed the rest of the run quite well to my own amazement not sure where the spurt of energy came from. Can not tell a lie did not enjoy the walking lunges at all I always suffer later in the day no matter how often I do these  they never seem to get any easier.

I really do welcome some sleep tonight  -if only !!!!!!!
