Sit up September

[Sweder]

Nice steady injury-free progress, core strength developing ... you just can't beat that MLCMan. I've been laid low by a stomach virus, a parting gift rom Brazil, yet with recent steady mileage banked I'm not worried about the long-term effects of a short lay-off.

I find the lack of an immediate goal refreshing. There's no pressure to bank a particular number of miles; you can run as and when you feel like it. Should you feel overly knackered on any given day you can cut your session short and not feel the icy hand of guilt on your conscience.

These pressure-free sessions are worth their weight in gold. This is priceless foundation work building strength and confidence. When the time comes to put your foot on the gas I'll wager you'll be pleasantly surprised at the response.
