After the Portsmouth exploits I decided to give myself a well earned rest. One whole week of no training. I've been easing myself back in the last week or two, but am only doing short runs. Come January I will basically have no life so from now until then I am taking it easy! It's no fun running 8, 9 or 10 miles in the dark, wind and rain after work so as I'm not in training at the moment- whyon earth would I bother?
It really is most liberating to decide on the way home 'nah it's raining, I'm not going out in this' and not have to feel guilty about it!
Lazy.
ReplyDeleteI'm really annoyed that just as I think my shin splints are getting better the pavements are covered in snow and ice....can't run on that or I'll end up with a new injury.
