The Building

I have never built a PC before and my best friend @supercush had recently built his, so we went at mine together :). Was great fun building it and now using the PC is the best feeling ever knowing i've earned it through Steem. I'm thinking I need to get the Steemit logo made into a sticker to stick on the case!!! So we started of with getting the CPU on the Mobo, this was the scariest part for me as the CPU is alot of money to replace!! ![20170814_192547.jpg](http://ift.tt/2v1V2Xd) Next we had to get the CPU heat sink on and the clamp on this thing was a challenge!! ![20170814_193806.jpg](http://ift.tt/2uICLmi) It was now time to get the motherboard into the case. ![20170814_201911.jpg](http://ift.tt/2v2xFMS) Once the MOBO was in it was time to install the corsair RAM sticks. ![20170814_202831.jpg](http://ift.tt/2uJPNjD) So the HDD and SSD were in and time to start getting the wires sorted, looks messy!! ![20170814_203954.jpg](http://ift.tt/2v2rAQF) POWER BABY!!! ![20170814_205457.jpg](http://ift.tt/2uJmZYp) Now it looks like spaghetti junction ![20170814_205546.jpg](http://ift.tt/2v26jqw) Time now to install the drivers!! Almost done! ![20170814_213428.jpg](http://ift.tt/2uJn0vr) Boom and we're there!! ![20170814_210608.jpg](http://ift.tt/2uJmZrn) Just for a laugh here is my old 7 year old gaming pc hahaha ![20170814_190926.jpg](http://ift.tt/2v2rBnH)

The pool was freezing! - Fuerteventura #03

Another day of getting out of bed with a smile. I really could get used to waking up to the sun. Breakfast is my favourite meal of the day when it comes to all inclusive holidays. I cannot resist a good old fry up! ![IMG_20171123_085826.jpg](http://ift.tt/2ji9uqb) We got some ideal sunbeds this morning. Even after all the considerate people reserving them with their towels haha. We laid down for some sun time after a big breakfast. ![Snapchat-1031549590.jpg](http://ift.tt/2A7kPRI) I decided to brave the swimming pool. The sun shines hot but there never seems to be anyone in the pool. And I found out why! ![IMG-20171122-WA0002.jpg](http://ift.tt/2jjBhpY) It was freezing!!!! I also recorded me jumping in on my GoPro and uploaded to instagram. You can see my reaction on the video. Click the link below to watch the video: http://ift.tt/2A7kRci We planned another walk today again after lunch. So just enough time for a lunch glass of red. ![IMG_20171123_130331.jpg](http://ift.tt/2jiASnQ) We ...

Countdown to my First Marathon - 126 days to go [4/50 #fiftyrunstillmay]

It’s Saturday This Means Parkrunday I usually love doing Parkrun but today I wasn’t feeling it. It was very cold and I really struggle with my breathing when it’s so cold. The run is supposed to start at 9am but because some of the paths were icy we had to wait whilst the volunteers gritted them. Which made me feel even colder! Today was my 48th Parkrun, I was hoping to get my 50th run before the end of the year as it’s a big milestone at Parkrun even though there are 2 more Saturdays this year I’ve got to work both of them so I’m a bit gutted! My run was sort of part of my training plan, I’ve just shuffled things around a bit and it was a little less time than I should of done. I did Tuesdays run today and Sundays run on Thursday as I have a race tomorrow. A Santa dash, only a 5k again. ![D61C3041-6908-443B-A914-247A42928AFE.jpeg](http://ift.tt/2k44t5u) Going back to today’s run, it was a bit of a struggle but thanks to another runner who ran with me from about the 4k mark kept me g...
