RE: March is Moyleman month
The Moyleman is holding my running back.
Back in January, tasked with re-routing and mapping the Moyleman course, I was out on my feet several times a week until I eventually achieved a couple of personal bests, running both halves (not on the same day). Sadly as January scuttled into February and February into March, I haven’t found the time or inspiration to put on the shoes and head out the door.
Having said that, I’m beginning to fire the feet up now - with two short runs in the last 4 days. A Friday evening romp after a very lethargic day in the office which turned into a personal best followed by a lunch time run today.
I planned today's jaunt at the weekend. Recognising that I am travelling the second half of the week I plotted my exercise for the beginning of the week. Last night was a squash training session – a hard hour of playing against myself – I lost... then today was meant to be a fairly slow affair to run out the aches in my legs and butt. Thing is, I ran the same route as Friday’s PB and ended up matching it even though the first mile was slower.
So to the Moyleman – only four more days to go… and the irony is that I cannot run this weekend because I am leading the runners out on my bike!
It’s a strange world this running, isn’t it?
