Work has been full on lately. Maybe there’s too much change happening at once. It feels very overwhelming.

Oh God. The students have returned.

Good morning. Happy Monday.

After yesterday’s run my legs didn’t want to get out of bed but here we are trying to inject a bit of colour into monochrome Monday.

Bath had. Legs massaged. Episode 4 of The Traitors Ireland watched. Now to chill in bed watching rubbish on YouTube.

Week 15/26 ends with a bang!

I enjoyed that run so much. All the traffic lights and crossings seemed to be on my side too.

I’m now running a hot bath……. and relax!

Good morning. Happy Sunday.

More importantly HAPPY FEBRUARY! We did it. We kicked January in the bollocks.

Hope you have a good day planned!

Today was the return of intervals. That was hard! I had put it off from yesterday. Not sure if that was a good idea the day before my longest long run.

I also saw an increase in my VO2 Max and shaved another 5 mins off my predicted time.

Intervals at 04:20-04:40/km.

After deactivating my Facebook account on Jan 1st 2025, I’ve just permanently deleted it.

I’m currently planning my 19km long run for tomorrow. The plan is to run from our friends in the east of the city to home in the west via Manchester city centre.

Good morning. Happy Saturday.

Hopefully a lazy day for me today. Coffee (not free and not a bucket), run, friends later for dinner and games.

I hope you all have a good one.

Good morning. Happy Friday.

I was in bed for 8pm last night. Didn’t sleep the best. However, my train was on time and my coffee was free this morning so Friday isn’t off to a bad start!

After the day I’ve had, I needed that run to clear the head. My target pace was 06:00/km but I could’ve quite easily ran faster and harder. I remained disciplined.

Today has been fucking draining.

When someone in the office is so loud and talks AT everyone, it takes its toll.

I’m just back from seeing the little ones class assembly.

The finale was a song about living in Victorian England sang to the tune of Dolly Parton’s 9 to 5.

Wild!

Good morning. Happy Wednesday.

It’s a WFH day today which I’m glad of because it’s FREEZING. I struggled to get out of bed.

Coffee before work though!

A brisk and windy start to week 15/26. Thankfully the weather isn’t as bad as it was this morning.

I almost didn’t go. I’m glad I did.

I’ve just changed buses on the way home because the announcements were too loud! 😂

I asked ChatGPT to summarise the monotonous office talk today.

The result…..
