Sally in Norfolk

No walking or swimming this weekend.
We had more important jobs like clearing Glisson Road.
Many trips were made to the tip and Charity shops.
Then the auction men came and took most of the antiques away.
Leaving the house feeling very empty.
The weekend was not all work though as Geoff’s next door neighbors had us round for a [...]

Due to Geoff’s immanent House move we were unable to have a walking Wednesday.
Much to  my disappointment,due to a mid-day appointment that could not re-scheduled,I was also unable to go to Cambridge today.
So I wasted most of the day doing nothing
But I did make another 10 jars of marmalade and a fish pie [...]

A great start to Valentines day.
Doing what we love best ( well almost best )
A 15 mile walk from Royston, with the Cambridge rambling club.
Jill led us on a very undulating route.
Good to see my heart rate rise as we went up hill then fall as soon as we reached the top [...]

Homemade Ginger biscuits for Geoff
Love hearts for my valentine

My new toy arrived today.

I set it up quickly and went for a short run round the Village.

I like the way it tells you how many calories burnt and that it does your heart rate too.
As well as the usual miles ran, time, avg speed [...]

I had the most wonderful day today.
My friend Helen aka @cloudgazer has entered the GEAR run in Kings Lynn on 2nd May 2010.
She wont mind me saying this , but she has been struggling with her training.
Working long hard hours means she finds little time to train.
Her best run to date was 4 miles in [...]

In 1997 I did my first Race for life, it was a small affair compared to today’s events.
Since then I have dipped in and out of them, 2004 being the last time I did one.
For some unknown reason I have decided to enter it again this year.
Maybe its just to prove to myself that I [...]

Through Geoff I have met a lovely lady called Karen Merritt
She is a well established Massage therapist specializing in Shiatsu and Thai massage.
Both are quite different to my Swedish massage.
Just before Christmas we bumped into each other at a party and got talking, like you do
We soon realized that as massage therapists, we [...]

Today I went for a run in Cambridge.
I took Geoff’s GPS with me.
This is what you can do if you have a good GPS

All information uploaded straight from GPS to mac using Ascent
What a great way to record all the information you want.
3.6 miles ran, in 40.01 mins, avg moving speed 5.4mph , pace [...]

A jar of my home made marmalade for two fillets of very fresh venison.
I think I shall pinch some red wine from Geoff this week-end and marinate the fillets in the wine before cooking them
