(yeah, I miss CatDog, and all the other crap Nickelodeon cartoons from the 90’s)
These two pictures are keeping me entertained at the moment for some reason. I can’t help giggling when I see them both!

Thursday 21st May
The morning always starts with a brew
Waiting at Bristol Temple Meads to go to work
I wouldn’t survive the work day without my giant cup <3
Normally I scribble down what I’ve done in my diary. Normally we have power to our comms room. No power=no work. Not as much fun as it sounds.
Since we couldn’t do any work, we went to the pub for lunch. Stella and a salad, is there anything better?
The most productive part of my day included counting these desktops.
My bordom levels were high here.
Building work in Temple Quay
I went home to write up some notes.
Our first veg box arrived. It looks like real food.
And then there was sleep.
I’m a terrible person.
I promised the amazing people that have sponsored me (which you can do by going to raceforlifesponsorme.org/hayley_c (yes, I’m shameless)) that I would blog my endeavors in training, because it was sure to be hilarious, bearing in mind that I am very lazy, and I really hate running.
I’ve been describing my running style to people as being like Phoebe from Friends. Observe:
OK, so I don’t run that fast (I’d be dead by the end of the road) but the flailing, yep, I do that.
So I’ve been training now reasonably regularly (probably not as much as I should, but apparently I have a social life. And also I’m lazy) and yet I still don’t seem to be able to run for more than 10 minutes before dying because my back is going into spasms. (My original spelling was “spazums”, which makes much more sense)
Its not too long until the race, and I’m half looking forward to it, and half not. I mean, yay, I get to take part and help raise money for one of my favourite charities, but boo, RUNNING HURTS.
You still have time to sponsor me, I know I keep saying it, but please please do! I’m half way to my target of £250, and I’d love to reach that target by the race day. Head over to raceforlifesponsorme.org/hayley_c if you have a few pennies to spare.
