blah blah blah

After several weeks of good motivation and running at or exceeding the plan of attack the pendulum has swung in the other direction. It's been tough to get out and get the required miles in this week. This is due to several factors but mostly in the energy motivation department and also because it's been hard to get back in a work/run routine. With the days getting longer now I may be able to start doing my longer runs at the end of the day from work since getting up at 5 or 6am and running long just doesn't work (for me). Don't know what happened to the keen appetite for running, just feel blah and its a struggle to get out the door lately.

On this theme Weds was re-arranged to an easy day instead of 14 with hills. Today I managed to get only 11 miles over an extended lunch. Once I got going it was actually a decent run with good pace and effort. The intention was to do 12 but ran out of time and needed to be back for another stupid meeting. Much prefer to do real work than debate hypotheticals and go round and round in circles. Perhaps a good sleep and weekend will perk me up, but still have miles to go...
