Haha my brother is literally the opposite of a go getter! I think he walks fast to get the walk over and done with.

Today was a very frustrating Monday in terms of eating...

I realised that because my hair is longer at the front (it's a backwards bob or whatever they're called) I can actually tie the front back into a half ponytail. No more flappy hair! I've had hair this short before but not for a while. I do like it, I'm just terrible at remembering to book hairdresse...

Well the heat is finished - here at least. Recently we've had thunder, lightning, cloud, fog, wind, drizzle and today's highlight: heavy rain. Welcome to an English summer! Managed to squeeze a run in while it wasn't raining. My hair blew around a bit but I'll get used to it not being tied back. Did...

Friday That's supposed to be S day coloured... My parents bought a voucher for afternoon tea at a charity auction a long time ago and thought they better use it before everything gets locked down again (ever the optimists over here!). It was very lovely but much cake. Funnily enough we actually had...

Wednesday Urgh. I have no excuses. Except it was hot. And I didn't take enough water on (the very lovely) walk. But still, that does not mean I need to eat all the cake.

I stopped sneezing but I didn't stop eating :oops: Tuesday Wednesday Thursday But Friday And finally went for another jog. Still 20 mins in two 10 minutes blocks but less of a gap between the blocks. Today we're going on a Long Walk. Even though it seems kinda hot out there (it's supposed to be clou...

flyingpig

My goal is to be able to "go for a run" and actually run all the time. 30 mins seems a sensible place to start! I was able to do that (or it could have been 20 minutes :? But all in one go rather than two 10 minutes blocks) in January Monday Or I could count it as a sick day... Bizarrely I seem to h...

flyingpig

I mean it's still North(ish) of England hot- so not exceptional but I'm really not a natural runner so any excuse! Today I did 20 minutes of running. And a bit of extra walking (accidentally - I go on a straight line path but went too far away from the car park) so it was more like 20/35. It's start...

Ah, I actually did reasonably well at home because I only bought a few snacks and then couldn't go out to get more.

We have 195 teacher days and 190 of those pupils should be in (so 5 training days), so even our regular breaks don't quite make up for your very long summer one! Was a bit grumpy this weekend as it was rainy. Plus I think I was annoyed that I can go to work "like normal" but there wasn't really anyt...

flyingpig

Oh wow, that is a long break! We have shorter but I guess maybe more regular breaks (3x 1 week, 2x 2 weeks and the six week one over a year). The holidays start earlier in Northern Ireland and Scotland than in England so I think they're not planning on going back till August / September. Friday Brea...

We do! Six weeks from mid-July until the end of August.

I can walk... But since Tuesday I haven't. I should get my bike out and see if it works - cycling might be a better option.
