Back In Scotland
Am back in Scotland now as I went home for Easter which was really nice as I got to see everyone and spend some time with my family and see friends!
The second day I got back I went and saw my best friend Oli who I hadnt seen since christmas so that was really good and I miss him lots when im up here as I saw him nearly everyday when I lived at home. I also saw my cousins and nan pretty soon after getting home which was really good and we all exchanged easter eggs and had a meal and a big Mississippi Mud Pie which my mum made and was incredible. I definately had too much as I had an allergic reaction to the chocolate (Lactose Intolerant) which wasnt good and required me to go to the doctors, but it was worth it as it tasted amazing!!!! Also got to catch up with my old training partners Josh and Mickey and we went for a meal at Zizi's which was really good and we had a catch up about how we were all getting on, just to get a bit of the 'old times' back!
Since ive been back in Scotland ive worked all this week and am working most of next week aswell, which kind of sucks but I have to because otherwise I dont eat and the rent doesnt get paid. However it was my flatmate Beckys birthday this week so we all gave her presents and had a massive marsbar cake. We then decided we were going to go to the carnival down by the beach so got in the cars and went down to the front. The first ride we all went on was the Waltz and im sure us girls screamed THE whole time until it stopped, some of the lads then went on another ride which I dont know the name of but there was no chance I was going on so I was joined on the side lines by becky, eilish and jenny whilst the lads and jo went on. As these were the only two rides on at the time (9.30pm) we decided that before we went home it would be a good idea to go back on the waltz... It wasnt!!! We were all sat in the cars trying not to bring up the marsbar cake and when I got back to the flat, I more or less went straight to bed as I felt really bad.
Trainings been going well at the moment, nothing outstanding but nothing bad either so just solid/consistent training so its all looking good at the moment apart from my hamstrings are not liking the track work... No pain No gain!! You have to try and remember that when on the physio bed or out on the track during a session, but as most things its easier said than done :)
Hope everyones training well and enjoying the warmer weather, especially in England!! Jealous!! Good Luck to anyone running London tomorrow morning!!
p.s. anyone else unimpressed by people moaning that they were stuck abroad in a nice hot country.... please stop!
