Sore bits

I have sore - lats, traps, tri's, bi's, glutes, hammies, abs, pecs...now let me see... are there any other bits of me that I've missed out????? Nope- I think that's it! Yes...that's right.... I got trained!!!! I specified that I didn't want heavy weights ( ever mindful of my injury list) but wanted to incorporate more balance exercises. I was a bit apprehensive- being a princess like creature at the best of times. However I LOVED it!!! Felt really good and was great to have someone else correcting technique. I did pushups on the bosu- apparently I was dropping my hips. Well... let me tell you - raising them up a bit sure did put more weight on my poor little arms! Tuesday is rolling around again and I'm feeling a bit apprehensive again- lol

Running in Mossman Gorge- Far North Qld. I always manage to run here despite injuries. It's my 'therapeutic challenge'!! Never failed yet!














While all you other 'Melbournites' were freezing in snow conditions- here I was- basking in the sun at Cairns! That's right- I know you hate me!!! lol
















Couldn't possibly resist using this glorious sand at Cape Tribulation for a gym. It just 'begged' to have some activity on it! lol


We were happy then! And aren't we clever to have managed the 'automatic
function on the camera!

I'm now done with showing off and skiting. That's it folks for another year!!!

A very boring mish-mash of unrelated information

Where has my holiday gone???? It seems like it never happened!! Not fair!! I've been very slack with blogging too- just survived this week with nothing really to report. I'm getting personally trained tomorrow so hopefully will survive that. The best thing that happened this weekend ( lol- I've just remembered) is that I ran 3 km straight ( ie no walking inbetween) and my foot has survived!! Yaaahhhhh- on the way back to recovery! I think I'll keep it at 3 km for a while and just see how it goes- the temptation is ALWAYS to go further so we'll just see how disciplined I can be!!

Here at Last!

I'm sitting here in my shorts and tshirt with sunnies and hat on my head and it is AWESOME!!!! So lovely and warm and more importantly- I'm on holiday which sweetens everything. I believe this weekend it will be 11 degrees, rain and cold in Melbourne!!!! YAAAAHHHH- that makes it even sweeter!

Up Up and Away!!

2 more sleeps and counting!!!

Sunday, August 03, 2008

Busy busy week to countdown!!

Only 4 more sleeps! And heaps to do it seems! I'm working late Monday and Wednesday and I think we'll need to leave about 5.30am on Thursday. I was going to pack tonight but somehow the night has escaped me and the thought of bed is far more enticing. I've prepared work for the Tafe classes for when I'm away and gathered stuff together for the two 'fifties' classes I do at the gym. Phew- all I need to do is get through the week ( and make the church soup) and get on that plane. Can hardly wait!!!
