The Ups and Downs of Running
Goals are definitely the way to go.

Personally, I am extremely motivated to run at the moment (can you hear the smug tone?). Big Grin

Unfortunately the reason for this amazing motivation is because I am currently not allowed to run. I was told in the summer that the tendonitis in my ankle is an overuse injury and I have to stop running for probably 6 weeks. Of course, running is the only exercise that I want to do at the moment and I've yet to get the dust off my nordictrack in an attempt to retain some fitness. My name is Liz and I'm a runnerholic. I haven't run in 17 days.

Seriously though, after the Chicago marathon, I had 5 weeks before the Richmond one. I believe I ran 6 times in that time - it seemed totally impossible to get out there. Andy is right - you need mental recovery time.
