Oh Denise! They're both so cute, and I so love that they finished the Marathon with you - an ultra special thing to do with your kids.
Now down to business - I did the required 10 on the treadmill today. I have to confess that I really do feel stronger for the miles we're putting in.
I'd run on Friday and Saturday as well as our fun scrabble through the Terrey Hills bush on Sunday. I then did a hard spin class yesterday. And despite all that, I was able to do a good 10k time (for me) today. In fact I think it was the second fastest treadmill 10km time I've done post-children. BTW, I did my fastest post-children treadmill 10km time just three weeks ago.
I hasten to add that I am not a masochist who will always load spin classes into the training programme. However, No. 2 son (Declan) has gymnastics on a Monday morning at the same centre as my gym. I'm not the type to just sit around for 45 minutes when there is a really good spin class on offer, so....
Fortunately Declan will go to Preschool on Mondays next year - so I will completely rest on Mondays then.
Must confess I am nervous about how the legs will go tomorrow with the Wednesday run loaded on for the first time.
I'll let you know (courtesy of this blog!)

Hi Paula and Sharon
Good on you for putting on the kms today. I did a quick 5km on the treadmill but you have inspired me to get up extra early tomorrow and run 10kms. I am in Coffs Harbour for work tomorrow and so will run before I fly out.
(And Paula I do a class when Alec does jujitsu on Saturdays - I agree no point "wasting" good gym time!)
I have mapped Sunday's run on mapmyfitness and will bring maps on Sunday.
