and some good news again!

My URTI is on the mend and I can breathe again.

I've done two short runs this week. One went really well and the other one (this morning) was awful. I'm still very tired and sore though, so I guess I shouldn't expect too much too soon.

I've been sustained through the last few weeks by some fantastic company. First there were the CR drinks where I caught up with some very good friends including Owen, Tesso, Hannah and Davo. Then the lovely Lulu came to town and as well as having drinks together we had a CR Brissie girls lunch with the terrible twins (Tesso & Clairie) and Vegie-Girl. I've had a wonderfully long phone call with those other Sydney CR girls (Jen and Owly) and lots of emails from other CRs who also mean a lot to me. Not to mention all those people who have left such thoughtful messages on my blog. Luckylegs - thank you so much for revisiting to check up on me!

Thanks everyone! It would be so hard to try and get out there again if I didn't have so much support from people who know what it's like to keep starting over. Hopefully there will be some slightly more interesting running posts soon.

Two runs in one week - take it easy Cirque. We want you coming back and STAYING back. Frustrating as it is - don't forget the 10% rule.

Whens' the next luncheon planned for?

No wonder it causes so much bother if it's called an URTI ...

Hello! Pleased to hear that you are back into it - and after a few months being a runner now I firmly maintain that a crap painful run is a sure sign of some really good ones ahead :)

take care!

Hi Cirque, Sorry I haven't dropped by in a while. Really SAD to read that you have been most unwell, but I am glad to see you're on the mend (fingers crossed). HK

I've been complaining to everyone how bad my jet lag has been and then I read your great news Cirque. And it is great news. Can't wait for the next progress report.
