Another great year 2009!

Running - Got up really early this morning and had some porridge before I left for my run with the Greensandjoggers. We did 10.4km circular run from Egerton. Great run. Enjoyed it. And had a great chat with the others on the way. It is going to be really lovely when we move to Pluckley. I am really loving the running. I am pleased that I have got into it.

Health & Fitness - I weighed in at 11st 13.5lbs. It is great that I am below 12 stone now. Really pleased about that. I did 100 bicep cur… Continue

What a great day.

Running - I went for a 10km run this morning. I went to pick up parcels from the post office. Backpack on my back I went for a run. I love run with a purpose :-)

Tenterden - I went to Tenterden. Was great. Had a lovely meal at cafe rouge - i even managed to choose a decently healthy meal. Salmon salad. We also had a look at some furniture in a shop there. We want to get some really lovely stuff when we move house. We think we will get some nice pieces at that shop, and at a s… Continue

I had a really great day today. I spent time talking to some really interesting people at an awayday for the senior team. I was also able to get a possibility of doing a speech at the next one. That will be really cool.

I got a coffee machine the other day. I have been trying to make a perfect espresso. I succeeded today! I found a great website that gave some tips - now I want to find out even more. I will buy lots of coffee at the weekend! And I want to try out making some different coffees -… Continue

My Journal - I was reading through my journal this morning on the train. It is a little while since I have looked at that particular one - but it covered the time when I felt particularly down with myself. It was hard reading it - but at the same time it was really great knowing that I have come out of the other side. I do enjoy keeping a journal.

Skiing Holiday - Thinking ahead about my skiing holiday and how great that will be. I want to get together all of my friends who are really intereste… Continue

What a great day. I can point to three reasons for my happiness.

1) I spent some time in the city - exploring areas that I do not usually spend much time around. Mostly, St Pauls and Paternoster Sq. Love it aorund there. I went to a different cafe than normal and had a lovely bacon sandwich to start me off for the day. It really is true - a change is as good as a rest.

2) I helped my team - I stepped in a the last minute to host a session that one of my team was running. I was able to introduc… Continue

- [ ] In Ibiza when I met Susie - it was a fabulous time. No
responsibilities, lots of drink, two weeks on holiday with a
mate of mine. not a care in the world - except for a nagging
worry about not having any money!
- [ ] What is your greatest fear?
- [ ] Of not reaching my potential. I know that there is a ton of
stuff i would like to do, and i want to make sure that i can
do it. My biggest fear is that I ever lose my phenomenal
drive or enthusiasm to… Continue

- [+] I am expecting a number of things today - which will be great
- [+] Further progress on the house. I got the survey through on
the house we are buying in Pluckley. Everything is pretty ok
and I am happy with what we have there.
- [+] Unexpected cash reward - I got 10quid in vouchers from tesco
clubcard - worth 40 quid!!!!
- [+] Go for a run this evening (only in my mind!)
- [+] Have great day at work - everything runs smoothly. It did.
Beautifully so.

The guy buying our house will sort out his mortgage today and we will hear soon about the survey and when it will be done on our house. I can't wait. Lots of things happening.

I am faffing about sorting my finances out so that we can get our mortgage properly fixed up. We will end up with the best rate ever and the best deal with no hassle. Spreadsheets galore!!

I could not pick up my Serpentine running top. They were not going to be open til later this evening. I wanted to wear that when I do… Continue

Day 64 Season 6

We had a viewing tonight on our house. I am sure that they will put in an offer and it will be even better than the previous one that we are currently going with. It should be possible to have absolutely the best quality buyer who will be able to complete whenever we need to. I am sure that tomorrow we will have a second offer on our house, and we will also hear that there is a survey being booked on our house.

Thinking about writing my book and I am not sure what software to u… Continue

I went for a run with the runners from the area where we are moving to. There were about 8 of us i think. They have all lived in the area quite a while. I think that it is a really good sign that it is the right area to move to. We went for a 11km run. Which was cool. Great lanes to run in - very littl… Continue

Running - I went for a lovely run around Medway by the river in the morning. I did 10km and ran down to the water treatment plant and then did a few more bits and then back to the car. Just in time for the heavens to open! So I was very happy that I did not get soaked. I have a half marathon next weekend and I am really looking forward to that. Tomorrow I am going to the village where we are moving to - I am linking up with some runners there and I am sure it is going to be lots of fun.… Continue

Went to Worthing - the seaside! South coast of england. Was really lovely there. Went with my partner Susie. We did all the things you would expect at the seaside - fish and chips, amusement arcades, and a walk along the promenade. Was a lovely day! Had a lovely relaxing day.

Enjoyed popping in to friends house too on the way back from the seaside. Nice to see them. We have not seen them for a little while now - so was lovely to catch up on the holiday stories.

Weighed in at 11st 10l… Continue

Done quite a bit of running during these last two days. Just been for a 10km run (almost 6 miles) in 51 minutes. I have a half marathon coming up on sunday just west of london and so i am expecting to complete that in 1 hr and 58 minutes. wish me luck!

I am raising £1million for charity (www.justgiving.com/philbradburn) by doing runs. I have raise £150 already and I am sure there is more sponsorship to come. I am passionate about the… Continue

Did plenty of things today. Went finally to the supermarket and bought some more food - since a few weeks back we havent been - and it was good to pick up the healthy food that we need - lots of fruit and veg.

My goals for this season. I will think positive, enjoy the countryside, financially comfortable, have great relationships, be really productive, relax a lot and be fit!

Where we want to live: We went for a drive around a few areas and we have decided that we definite… Continue

Had a lovely day today.

Went for a run this morning. Covered 10km in around 54 minutes. Some of it was very hilly and I had a fabulous view when I reached the top of the hill in Chatham, Kent. Place called the Great Lines. I have a half marathon next weekend in Burnham Beeches and I am really looking forward to that.

My partner and I went to Bexhill on sea. That was the first time that we have been there and it is really nice. Great beach - pebbles - and I would love to own one o… Continue

Went for a drive to look at houses. We were looking around an area called Kings Hill. It is in West Malling. It used to be an airbase I understand. We have decided that we really do want to live there. It is similar to where we live at the moment, but there are some really big houses there - which is what we want.

Went to a friends place for dinner. Lindsey and Paul's. We had a fab meal, a great chat and lots to drink. It was fun being with friends that are so much fun. We had some much to talk… Continue
