Can't agree with this enough. Was exactly my undoing training for the run.
You watch mate, in a few months you'll be at the stage where if you have to miss a workout for some reason you'll get grumpy about it!

Been out for a decent run tonight, decided to up the distance a bit and see what happens. The new route turned out to be 11.3km and I came home in a respectable 1 hour and 5 mins, thats pretty much on pace for a 2 hour half marathon. There where also a few pretty good hills on the route too so I'm really quite happy with progress.

Bugger! I reckon that's the worst thing about getting older, we still play/work like we are 20 but then suffer for it like we are 60 ! Rest and mend soon dude.

A couple of PBs today (from home to New St Station in just over 20 minutes and the 9 miles home from Marston Green in 46 minutes). I'm now down from 19 stone to 16 stone 9 pounds. Result!
Been a bit better this week. Went to the gym on tuesday and did an hour+ cardio session. Went out for a run after work tonight, first time off road which was a bit different. Ran alongside the river upto dinton pastures, did 2 laps of the lake and ran back, think its just short of 10k and was back in about an hour so quite happy with that, especially as I had to stop a couple of times to ask directions
