Lungs….? Where We’re Going We Don’t Need Lungs!

Oh I went a did a silly thing today. Seems like only yesterday I said I wouldn’t be well enough to do the Spar Join Ray For 5k, actually, it was yesterday I said that. For those of you who aren’t aware, I’ve had a stinking chest infection since last Saturday & all week I […]

I’ll Be Back…

Argh! So I’ve no updated the blog in almost 2 weeks, this is because I’ve not been running *insert sad face here*. Almost 2 weeks ago, I was on top of the world, I’d ran my first 7km & I thought I was indestructible! That was until I realised I’d given myself a nice shin splint […]

So This Is What 7km Face Looks like…

  Ahhhh, yes, ain’t that fresh? Everybody wants to get down like that… That’s one of the songs I ran to today, Skee-lo ‘I wish’…and you know what, I did wish, not that I was a little bit taller, although sometimes I do, but this time I wished I could do 5k. You see, my […]

I’m An Outsider

I’ve been rather tired this week between one thing & another, um, yeah, I know it’s only Tuesday, but I mean in the past week…which maybe I should have written instead of waffling. Anywho, my last run was on Saturday, my triumphant 339th place of 370th! I’m still giving myself hurrahs for that one. I needed […]

5k Parkrun Marlay Park

About 2 weeks ago I joined Parkrun. It’s a free timed 5k run that happens on Saturday morning at 9:30am in local parks around the world (mostly UK & Ireland). To join it, you go to http://www.parkrun.ie, register yourself & your legs, you get a barcode which you print off & bring to the event […]

My Running Buddy Is Cuter Than Yours

    Last night I was staying in Dublin, had some business to attend to (going for dinner with your cousin is business), anyway It was a running day & run I must! I love running in Dublin, not just because its my home town, or that I run in a slightly dodgy park, but […]

PROGRESS!

Went for my second run of the training for 10k, back up to my good auld faithful running track…now when I say running track, its a track, a trail maybe, that you can run on. None of your fancy athletics tracks for me, no sir! Now this, ahem, running track, has lots of ups, very […]

Ouch My Hips

So here I am on Saturday night laying on the sofa watching some crap on tv & the fire is lighting. I could be out with friends, well actually no, I really couldn’t, you see I went for a 5.04km run today & my legs are refusing to working. I know what you’re thinking, 5.04km, […]
