This is my track. 
My garden square. 
Gravel. 
I was running slowly. 
Found my music! 
Love the music and the combination of the rythm and the slow run cleared my head from stress.
I did a full hour.
Please God, may I get addicted to this-:)
Was visiualizing the marathon run and crowds and crossing the finishing line.
I so want this to happen.
Observation: right knee definetly still weaker and was acting out for the first 15 min. 


Bit of pain. Later was better.
But I need to do more weight lifting and using the push scooter - pushing myself away only with the right leg.

How to shut me up

Today, Matt made me do 50kg press up's on each of the legs. Few reps. 
Before that, I was doing 40kg and was still managing to talk to him about a punch up that I havewitnessed in the Club, years ago.

He was just looking and listening and than he said: "Add 10kg more! You can still talk."
And that additional 10kg did shut me up, instantly!
When I told me husband about my session, he said: "I love that guy!"

Sitting and waiting for Matt to show up. Bit apprehensive today. My whole body seems to hurt. Not badly, just tired hurting. I am tired. This training and the holiday season is getting to me. I was in bed last night at 08:45pm!
Like a kid.
Every other day there seems to be something going on. I am exhausted from planning, organizing, scheduling, packing, decorating - and.....OK, Matt is standing before me.
Have to go!

The hardest session, so far. I was wobbly, I was so tired in the half time. But I feel
like I am getting stronger and better with every one!
The muscles have memory. They 'remember' that I just trained with Gordana for the power walk marathon and walked the whole 26 miles/42 km and finished it!

I just need to 'refresh' my muscles memory....
I pressed 50kg on each leg today - 10 reps. Difficult.
The session was annoying because someone in the Club was testing the fire alarm and getting it wrong, all the time...
Could give you a headache.
Now out in the street. Wet from sweat.
I cannot believe how well I feel after every session.
This is the first time I feel slightly out of breath.
Next session on Thursday, next week. In the meantime I need to go to the gym,
 
by myself.
The weather today feels like early Spring, not the 1st of December....
On the way to my training session, I passed a young woman running in summer gear, it is so warm.
Climate change and the biggest ever gathering of world leaders debating on this very topic in Patis!
Good luck and come up with some good solutions to save our beautiful Planet!
