I am now on.................

Holidays :-))))

I couldn't stand being at work doing bugger all for the remainder of the week, so yesterday I decided to put in for some more leave to begin my Xmas break today, instead of Friday. Yippee! I am not due back to work until the 10 jan 07 :-)

This morning Sam didn't care that his Dad was now on holidays, he was up at 5am all bright and chirpy. I should use this time more wisely and go for a run with the pram, but I find it hard to become motivated that early.

Instead I just let him crawl all over me for about an hour before he decided to have another sleep.

It was all steam ahead at the household today in preparation for the family & friends coming for the Xmas period. The day was chewed up with cleaning and last minute Xmas shopping. At about 5pm when Cass was leaving for work Sam and I headed out for a casual run.

Nothing special about this run, just around the local area. I ran a different route which was a bad decision especially having the pram. The terrain was a little rough at times however Sam didn't seem to mind. I did slow to a walk on some sections where the footpath seemed to disappear.

I also noticed that every second car seems to stare at me when I run with the pram. It makes me paranoid like I am doing something wrong.

Anyway all up we ran 7km at a nice casual pace finishing in 37 mins.

Week - 17k
Month - 75.5k
YTD - 1150k

I have just realsied that I have only 50k to crack 1200 for the year. I guess this is my last goal for 2006, I have 10 days left, shouldn't be too hard if I get to next weeks Fatass event.
