i'm at home this fine, damp saturday morning watching the men's marathon world championship being held in osaka!

it makes me miss racing there actually, as well as training there. and living there. simpler times.

but in saying that, there've been some huge changes in my life lately and i'm finally happy again. (ok, the commentator really needs to learn how to pronounce 'osaka') ... j and i are great, the kitties are great and de-wormed, work is great, my health is ok... but that gets better easily.

i keep losing my voice. instead of my usual coffee i'm drinking herbal tea with honey... anyone who knows what i'm like in the mornings knows that it must be serious if i forgoe my morning coffee!! it's just really difficult cause if i can't talk, well, i can't talk. and i like to talk a lot!

which i just did to my family... and now i have to rush off!

bisous!
