I dragged the treadmill into the living room yesterday in order to watch the 4th round Hrbaty -v- Davydenko match from the Australian Open tennis whilst doing my scheduled run... without going into detail, yes it was actually easier to move the treadmill than to move the TV, and in any case provided a welcome change of scenery Smile

Anyway, I jump on the tready just as the third set is getting under way and immediately things are looking grim. It's tough going, and I'm thinking "oh no, not two bad runs back to back" Sad I'm struggling along barely above long slow pace, contemplating aborting the run when I realise - doh - that in moving the treadmill I've managed to put it into "incline" mode, so I'm actually doing a four degree hill climb :o

So after quickly getting things back on the level I'm off again and it turns into a brilliant run and despite the very slow first half kilometre I traverse the 5 km in 28:55, which is significant for me as it's easily the fastest 5 km I've run since before viral pericarditis put me in hospital 16 months ago. So very happy I am!

And despite losing the first two sets, Davydenko went on the beat Hrbaty in five sets - an excellent match, and one Hrbaty deserved to lose, wearing - as he was - a ridiculous pink shirt with two enormous holes cut out of the back.

Bring on the next run, I say!
Run. Just run.
