Introduction

After several years of struggling to squeeze in more than a couple of runs each week, and aware that the final years of my athletic prime were passing at a clip, I resolved to run every day for a year. Didn't manage it in 2006 (made it to then end of june), so hopefully the discipline of this blog and the £1 challenge will see me right in 2007.

March 8th - Road run

Actually went out to work this morning for the first time in yonks, and what a frustrating and unrewarding time I had. The experience left me so traumatised that I knocked off at 2 pm with the job half-done and drove home, collecting Ellie in Melrose en route, barked at the kids for an hour then slipped upstairs for 40 winks. Woke at 4:30 after a 20-minute snooze and felt a lot more mellow. Missed the Gala Harriers track session (couldn’t justify another 50 miles’ motoring) and didn’t get a chance to run until they were all tucked up in bed, then nipped out sans chien at 9 for a steady 38 minutes on the road to the sawmill and back.
