Good to see you bouncing back. Start that mental preparation for Sunday.

This makes me realise that I don't have any runs like this between Christmas and April. I only run three times a week, so every session is focussed on something, and tends to be hard work. Maybe I'm missing out.

It's not quite the bounce back I'd hoped for I'm afraid. I'm still somewhat listless and lacking in energy, enough to have scrapped my planned hardtop run tonight and maybe duck Parkrun on Saturday unless things improve. I've been on the cusp of a cold for a while so maybe that's trying to work itself out. There's a dull ache behind the eyes and a general stiffness in these old bones just now.

This 'listening to your body' lark flies in the face of my usual 'heads down, no nonsense, mindless boogie' approach. I'm mindful that the creaks and groans get ever louder. I'm old enough and almost wise enough to know that missing a couple of midweek runs won't hurt my overall fitness. So long as I'm back on the long trails on Sunday all should be well.



Check out the wonderful links offered alongside this horribly dated TotP clip.

The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph
