How I wish I could get to a point where the single and only focus for me is trotting and just management of my responsibilities and chores.
Got a maintenance programme of house and garden that would choke an elephant.Looking to get back on top and get this marathon ✅ off.
Not going to stress myself out just hang tough and get up for achieving both without too much slippage.
Sounds awful but life does take over.Cannot believe it is the 19/02/20 already.Count myself very fortunate while all around many are not able to trot and excuse me for being morbid but they are off trotting in pastures anew.
I do enjoy reading all your achievements on here and the motivation and support in abundance.
Keep on keeping on and posting on the magic forum that just keeps on giving.

All that other work will get in the road of your preperation for your marathon training, especially now with Spring not too far off in March.
I was on Stirling yesterday and its amazing how many Spring flowers are already showing, Spring is getting earlier each year.
Talking about the Magic Forum, I did not repeat C25K last year although I did rerun a few of the later runs, although I am a Graduate10, I have not ran a 10K since November 2019, so I am doing JuJu's Magic 10K plan, this afternoon I ran, run 3 of week 3 which is 44 minutes.
We can only do what we can do Tbae. That’s why I doubt I’d ever train for a marathon any time soon because there are too many other things in my life that I need to do/want to do. Like the garden! I need to get out there and put hours in because the weather hasn’t held back the flowering of all sorts, including weeds! I can see them literally growing as I look out the window 😡
I am going to remove all the mature shrubs in the beds front and rear.
Going to prepare, feed all beds for replanting but not going to replant.Going to cover all beds with a membrane and create a multi pot garden on top.Cut barrels, terracote,plastic pots,(not loud) etc.,and plant them up with bedding plants for a bit of colour.Going to put the beds to sleep and on hold.
Repair and decorate the house, finish the decluttering exercise and put some of the garden to sleep.
I am determined I am going to ✅ this marathon off.If not now when.Trotting and this forum has given me a second chance.Never walking away.The more hits that keep on coming the more I will rise to the challenge.This time I am the only winner.🙈🤔🤪🤣
I’ve put family and dog’s needs ahead of running this week, but while doing so the grass was getting higher and the weeds ditto. The only thing that irked me though was missing planned runs 🙂.
Aw Tbae , life does take over sometimes..and that’s ok...you’re still here and we are glad for that!! I love your expression ‘trotting in pastures new!!’ You are good at trotting, and we all know how much you enjoy it and will carry on trotting for as long as you can but those jobs need doing too, just make sure you get the balance right and don’t desert us xx
