You want tired, I'll give you tired! Woke up at 4:25 this morning to take Phil to work, if I doctor was about I'd have been certified dead - that's tired. Never mind, dropped him off, came home, got back in bed, up at 9am, that's more like it.
Borrowed a roller of one of our neighbours, Pete and rolled the grass seed I laid last week. Looks a bit better but no signs of growth as yet.
Missus went shopping for the day so me and Lucy pottered about and then went up town, got papers went to swimming baths for two and a bit hours (can feel it in my arms which is wierd as we didn't really swim as much as we used to do). Anyway, a good session I suppose.

Cripes was I tired this morning. Bit jiggered which am putting down to the badminton lesson last night. Was a good session though. Bit disappointed about trip to doctor's which saw blood pressure up a bit so am going to monitor it at home for a week or so. It's nothing massive but higher than it was. Everything else okay though. Anyway the garmin was saying low battery so just did same run as yesterday. See pic below.

Am looking out the window at 6am and there's bloomin frost - we're halfway through May for heaven's sake, what's going on? - I reckon this is what you get with a coalition government and what's happened to the climate change folks? Going for shorter run this morning as need to be in office early doors to get prepped for a meeting.

Up at 5:25, watered everything, ran the usual 5 miler which means 25 miles run by Wednesday this week! Gutted for Fulham, how bad to concede in last minutes of added extra time, they played super football too and had their chances, shame it didn't come off we need a few fairy tale stories in these grim days.

Up before alarm clock at 5:30 so adjusting a bit! Watered me grass seed and then out for a run. Steady five miles a fraction quicker but felt slower at 9:31. Details here. Got out for a fast spin on the FCR1 last night details here then did five holes of golf to finish off. Not bad.
Monday 10th May 2010
Did a ruck of recycling, gardening and what have you yesterday so went to bed early (9ish). Woke up at 4:30 (thanks Phil) went back to bed for a bit. Got up at 5:25, put composting bin out for bin-men, watered the freshly laid grass seed, polished four pairs of shoes then out for a run (details here). Did 5 miles at 9:40ish minute pace which was ok.
Went up and played a few holes on golf course, popped into clubhouse to see Saturdays result and found I'd won the second division (handicaps 10 to 18), which was nice. But they dropped me handicap down to 17 now - it took three years to get it back to 18 and two goodish rounds to get it back down to 16.7 , aaaagh.

Have been up at 4:30am last two days to take Phil to work. Ace fun. Anyway got back this morning and went out for a run. Four miles in and got a low battery warning on the Garmin so had to use mapmyrun.com to get the distance worked out. Did about 9.5 miles in about 1hr 40mins so pace wasn't too bad, as soon as watch was switched off though I'm sure I dropped off the pace. Nice route this was though as saw nesting swans, canadian geese (one was wearing a rush T-shirt so definitely canadian!), a hare, some sort of big owl and millions of rabbits and ducks. A lovely morning too after the bitter cold that yesterday was. Got back, washed the cars and will no doubt be gardening soon.
