I haven't been feeling the running love lately. I had some dark moments in the Cat and Canary, so I decided to take a couple of days off running. Today I was thinking about not running. I didn't take my PE kit to work. Last night I had an hours kip on the sofa and then went to bed at 9:30pm. The kids have been ill.
Somehow I decide to do the Beckenham loop. I'm not sure how it will go. The first 20metres are great and then it is a bit harder. Then somewhere about a third of the way in it gets easier. The techno music helps.
On the way back I power up the hill more than I have done in a while. I concentrate on running with my left leg as well. Sometimes I think it comes along for the ride. In cycling there is an exercise where you ride with one leg at a time to make sure you are balanced. You can't do that with running.
Eventually I crest the last hill and then bang my way back home. Definitely a better run. The time is good as well. Though when I was the London Marathon Beast I did it two minutes quicker (Though that was an extraordinary day which was one of my best ever runs)
