inspiration

I need some inspiration

It's cold and wet outside.
I over indulged over Christmas.
I feel old and knackered

Although all the above are reasons to go for a run (not to hide away inside and pretend I don't need to take any exercise) my superb rational brain is fighting the logic and I am very much stuck indoors horrified at the antics of my bf. He is out running 19 miles at the start of a tour around the entire coast of Wales. I am impressed by his madness.

But not inspired

Oh, perhaps tomorrow I will do a zombie run... It would feel good to blast out a quick run before the end of the year...

I'm a runner now

I've been for 2 Monday evening runs with the Westbury Harriers and I may go back for more (except for work and Christmas...)
It was surprisingly OK - I mean, I usually avoid running with other people but I found it was fine. Also not knowing the course helped as I did't know where the hills were or how long there was left. So a win, really.
I put myself in the slowest group of course and it was quite easy. So when I do go back I will go up one and challenge myself. Not fond of a challenge really. Hence my rather troubling current situation. But that's for another blog...
