Looks like no-one wants to speak about The Post

EG, I've been offline for a while, but as soon as the above sentence popped up in my Inbox I knew what you must have posted.

For me, the most telling sentence is "Time to revive myself with some other brew, before I think about hauling myself to my feet for another punishing round against my own overzealous ambition." Overzealous ambition - we've all been there. If you take a break, rest the injuries, and then perhaps you do feel the call of the road once more, there's no need to throw yourself into a marathon. Sure, you've found a lot of spiritual fulfilment in that distance before, but (as you suggest) there's much to be gained from 10K running.

The other thing I noticed while reading your post is the impressive "Races Past" sidebar. Put your (gouty) feet up and relive glories past for a while.

I look forward to hearing about whatever will be feeding your soul next...
