It's been a while since I blogged..... No-one has missed me I know, no-one reads these!! lol!
My weight is going GOOD!! I am now at 10 stone and 8.5 lbs! Well chuffed!! It did go up a bit but then went back down again! I am only half a pound from loosing a stone, and I am really pleased with that, I know it's slow going as I've been trying since the new year but I have only really started loosing it properly since 21 of May, so that is only nine and a half weeks!!
The running is going slow, I did get a bit of a cold last week, wasn't bad but it did knock me back a wee bit. I did 7.5 miles yesterday, found it tough but got it done. I'm meant to do 9 on Sunday, might try a 10..... I'm going for a long walk with my big sister on Saturday, she says that will be good for my training too! It's meant to be sunny so that will be nice! Just hope she doesn't walk too fast! lol.
Work is same old same old...... Just done six days in a trot, Sunday was a bit of a nightmare though! Self scans and coinstars going wrong didn't help matters!! AND everybody and their mother's decided to come shopping at 3:30 when we needed to get closed for four!! They had all bloody day!! ARGHHH!! Anyway, only one more Sunday to work before the Great North Run!

Melmber, Rainton and weight!
Well, it's been a while!
Melmerby 10k went OK, it was a VERY hot day so times not too good, did it in 1:20:31, slower again on last year but not too worried.
Rainton 10k should have been better as weather was OK but training hadn't been done, did that in 1:23:33, again slower than last year, wasn't going to do it but got persuaded by friends, I'm glad I did it though because the medal is lovely and it was apparently the last one!!! Real shame that, it is a very nice race!!
So, the weight.......... Well, I am only 3/4 of a pound off loosing a whole stone!! (BMI (28.17 was originally 33.26 and obese) still saying overweight at but I am!!) Don't know what clicked but it might be either:
* The Wanted concert on July 15.
* A trip to go to see the Paralympics on September 3 (going with work! So chuffed about that one!!)
* Great North Run half marathon on October 16.
* My and hubbies holiday on October 1.
* David Essex concert on October 25!!
Such a busy back end of year! I guess the accumulation of all the above have helped, either way, I'll take it thank you very much!!
