Lovely nails!

When my alarm went off at 5.45am I thought I was dreaming. It was pitch black and silent the other side of the curtains and I really didn't feel like getting up. But I had to so that I could get in 20 minutes of yoga followed by porridge which would give it 1 hour to digest before swimming. In the pool I worked on keeping my legs closer together and I thought my times were ok till I checked my watch - even slower than last week! 4 x 500m was my session but I mustn't get dispondent about the time because I am not training enough to warrent a better time. I am only there to ease my legs from the running and that it did. Tonight a "foot doctor" came and checked out my feet and toe nails. They got a nice filing and any calluses were reduced with a scapel. I've been advised to put moisturising cream on my feet twice a day to get them in good shape for the desert. I know it all sounds like I'm getting in touch with my feminine side, but this is all to help me survive in the desert. If your feet aren't properly prepared the it will be a very painful and perhaps short adventure in the sand pit! It would also be a waste of all my fitness training so my feet are now a priority!
