Janathon Day 9

On Fridays we finish school early. Yay! Which is then followed by meetings. Boo!

My afternoon went something like this: A*-C, FFT, levels of progress, FSM, expected grade, exceeding progress, KS2, 4b, target grade, minimum expected grade, aspirational target grade, intervention, pupil premium, FSM ever, services, KS3, underachieving, KS4, blah, blah, blah.

I'm not sure whether or not I will actually have time to do any teaching soon. It is all starting to wear a bit thin at the moment.

So when I got in it was straight back out to head to the gym for some treadmill action…in kms…

Today's mileage = 4.20

Total Janathon mileage = 40.05

Janathon Day 8

I have been taking my running kit to school all week with the idea that I could complete the day's run after school – today it finally happened. So, as soon as the bell had gone, bus duty was completed and a bit of data inputting was done I was changed and heading for the school field.

We have two fields at school: the field and the back field. Tonight I discovered that one big lap, including both fields equates to about a mile. So four big laps: 4.2 miles. Cushty.

Tonight's mileage = 4.20

Total Janathon mileage = 35.89

 

 

One week down… #janathon

Janathon Day 7

A long day at school that went something like this: early start to finish some marking; followed by a full day of teaching, including a lesson with my lovely Y11s producing some hilarious role-play characters; followed by a late finish inputting data.

Therefore it was a late night pounding the streets of Bourne.

That's is one week done!

Today's mileage = 3.29

Total Janathon mileage = 31.69

Janathon Day 6

It was the gym again tonight. But things have changed. Rather than just walk straight in, or on the off chance that someone is on reception, walk straight in and flash the membership card, we have a new system. After going through the rigmarole of having photo and fingerprint taken I can now just walk straight in, or on the off chance that someone is on reception, walk straight in and scan fingerprint. Brilliant.

Tonight I managed to find a treadmill that not only worked but was also in mph. Happy days.

Today's mileage = 4.31

Total Janathon mileage = 28.40

If it wasn't enough being a member of a gym, there also seems to be the odd personal trainer available…

Really?

 

‘Unable to attain set pace’ #janathon

Janathon Day 5

The first 'real' day of Janathon. Holiday over; back to work. It was always going to be struggle to get out on the road for a run tonight. So it was a visit to the gym for tonight's run. The plan was just for a quick half hour on the treadmill – increasing the pace every 10mins. Sorted.

It was easier said than done; the treadmill wasn't up to it tonight. Having set the pace it kept randomly increasing and decreasing until it came up with the message, 'Unable to attain set pace'. After 30ish mins of this, enough was enough. Day 5 done. 7.14km.

Today's mileage = 4.44

Total Janathon mileage = 24.10
