Friday 31st May to Wednesday 5th June - Catching up

Funny that it was registration for warriors on Thursday and I never even thought about it, I was so preoccupied with Mourne. I should get a place though, all going well.
I haven't blogged since Thursday because I've been working and busy with the bank holiday and all. I will catch up later though.

Wednesday - back to work from 5 to 1 , another warm day. Went to get my i-phone fixed, not promising. I had a good chat with Aine, a dietician from Strandhill, regarding feulling. Will post plan for that tomorrow. Sam McGarry also rang with best wishes. It's beginning to get serious now. However, I'm very relaxed, focussed on what I have to do and how I'm going to do it.

Went for a short three mile run to loosen up. Will do another similiar tomorrow. Might get a massage and will ice my ankle till Saturday.
Iwetta booked our hotel in Dundalk tonight for the run.
We'll head at 3pm on Friday. Dion is going to stay with the Morrisseys and go to the presentation. I really wish I didn't have to  miss it but these things happen. It just makes me more determined to win it again next year.
