Totally buggered, family Xmas get together last night and BBQ at a mates place today, as well as running both mornings and battling the shops yesterday I am a wee tired little munchkin today.
And no bloody house work has been done so the place looks like a tip, Mum is coming to drop the dog off tomorrow and despite being a grown woman I still like to make sure the house is in order when Mum pops over 
I do have my priorities in order however and my running gear for the week is all freshly washed and ready to go.
This morning I had my longest run since my comeback, 16Km along the Yarra River with Jo and Michelle, with Tony and Mark shooting off out front. I was up early this morning with cramps, but due to the planned run I didn’t want to take any neurofen because it would make me sick 
Definitely a good morning to be meeting someone for a run, otherwise it would have been too easy to stay in bed with the hot water bottle. Of course by the time I had finished I was glad I fronted up, though there were some rough moments out there today. Jo put in a pretty good effort to cheer my up with some very very very bad jokes which worked a treat while pushing up the last hill. I honestly don’t know how the elite women race if they are unlucky enough to have their period on the day, you can’t always plan events around it. I am a bit unlucky that I have a rough time of it though. It can be managed (by taking the pill non-stop) but I don’t like to mess with nature, so I guess I just have to put up with it.
Distance - 16Km

I have finished up with a 6 day week, 2 fast sessions and just over 53Kms. Yep, finally turning a corner here, if I look over my shoulder I can’t see past the bend to the injury.
Touching wood now 
Flat as a tack, the couch calls.
