It was my 10th Wedding Anniversary last night.  A couple of glasses of Champagne, slap-up meal, nice bottle of Red and a brandy.  Obviously our toddler doesn't know this and wake at 5:15 requiring entertainment.
Still a lunchtime run is alway nice.  Don't know where the inspiration comes from, but a run over to Bishopsgate and North is the chosen route.  The outward leg I fly.  Shoreditch high street is full of interesting shops and cafes.  15 minutes in to the run, I turn back.  A couple of minutes further back, and suddenly BANG!  I feel like death.  No energy.  I'm hungry and tired.  
Friday night, after a few beers, I had gone one stop too far on the train and had to walk 25 minutes back to my house.  It was the hardest thing I had done (Worse than 120mile cycle rides and 20 mile running races)  I got home and collapsed in the middle of the kitchen until 6:00am....
I called on that spirit on todays run and made it back to the office.  Fitness-wise probably not a great workout.  In terms of spirit and mental toughness, I kept going.  I'll be calling on that some day, sometime more important in the future.
