I was working at the Running Room today. There was a new guy starting, a retired PE Teacher, so the manager decided that a few of us should all try and learn more about the shoes. He even put a couple of willing volunteers on the treadmill to watch them run in slow motion. I think I will have to find some time to try and write it all down or make a table as there is a lot to know.
I got to have another go at the Brookes competition today and won a pair of shoes! I will now be getting a t-shirt, jacket and shoes all for free, plus I run in a pair of Brookes back home so I just chose the same ones.
After finishing at 6:30 and going home via the shops, I quickly shoved a pizza in the oven, got changed and went out for a few drinks. I still feel like I have to socialise as much as possible, even if I have to get up early the next day. We went to the West Edmonton Mall as there are lots of bars there too and a "few drinks" became getting home at 2am. I guess I was just having too much fun! I set my alarm for 6:30 as I really want to go running with the Running Room. I've missed the last couple of weeks and haven't exactly been doing much exercise so its going to be hard work.
You jammy thing! I can't believe the amount of free stuff you have got with that job so far! It would never happen here! Go you! Can't believe how busy you have been since you left home! Very impressed with the ultrarun. The photos of that and the Rockies are excellent. Can't wait to see a photo of Oscar!
ReplyDeleteLisa! I was going to message you as I realised I missed your birthday, sorry. I will correct the oversight and post a photo of Oscar shortly.
ReplyDeletebear in mind I'm on minimum wage but I do seem to be extremely lucky with this competition.
