Bed To 5k

Last night, I finally got around to putting that new wheel on my bike. So I’m good to go this morning and I cycle to work back on ‘number two’ bike.

Having launched her ‘Couch to 5k’ programme, L claims to be feeling good. She said she could even sit back on said couch last night without grimacing. In her case though it should really be a ‘Bed to 5k’ programme as that is where the problem usually starts, as in getting out of it without resorting to a crawl. Still there are benefits to not being able to leap out of bed in the mornings.

Dog training tonight and also a side mission to pick up a TV from L’s parents. This is for Daughter as we continue to fit out her penthouse apartment.

Later in the pub, there is a somewhat diverse selection (for the Masons anyway) of Timothy Taylor Knowle Spring and Weetwood Best.

Make Or Break

This week after two rides to work and a game of squash, I attempt to finish the knee off with a five mile run after work. I figure this will be ‘make or break’ for the knee. It’ll either be good to go for my next half marathon in a few weeks time or I’ll be in for physio treatment next week.

L meanwhile ignores her inner demon which is telling her to slob, coagulate and vegetate in front of the TV with a glass of sherry and goes to the gym. I’m not sure that the former is possible anyway; I think someone’s drunk all the sherry. At the gym, she claims to be doing some exercise routine that involves a supermarket trolley. I shall require a full explanation later, even if we have to go to Sainsbury's car park for a demonstration.

I have a good run, it’s relatively swift and the knee holds up. Although I’ll probably be sprinkling Doggo’s joint stuff on my breakfast tomorrow.

Then, wa-hey, it’s Friday. We’re not had a Friday since early December.
