Pain, and heat, and crazy races.

  Well, yesterday really didn't go so well. I couldn't complete my jog, after about 10 mins the pain in my shins was so bad I could barely lift my feet of the ground. I tried to stretch it out, desperately using a tree and watching all the marshals and spectators and runners for the 10K Cardiff Race for Life, feeling like a complete idiot. No, I wasn't trying to join in, but I was just trying to jog my usual route, there where just all these crazy fuckers getting in my blasted way! I mean, honestly? Did someone forget to tell them, that park is MINE?!?!?!
  On top of the pain, the heat was nasty. Stifling even. I was sweating the minute I left my house. And it was getting hotter and hotter by the second. Gone are the cooling breezes it seems. I left the park feeling dejected and just about ready to give up. I'm not gonna, but I wanted to. Allowed myself 10 mins of wallowing time, and then firmly slapped myself around the face.
  Today the daughter and I are going to hire bikes and cycle the Taff Trail, as long as none of those other pratts are anywhere near my cycle paths, it should be a nice day. If any of you hear news reports that a crazy woman rampaged through the Cardiff on a hired bike, her confused child in tow, knocking down old people and almost drowning offspring, just deny ANY knowledge, got it?
