Part II - TD 3
Again, I really had to force myself out tonight. I haven’t signed up for another race - just been too many things wrong with me to commit to it - but I wish I had done now, because at least then there is a bit more motivation.
But, I decided that all I was doing was sitting either in front of the pc, or in front of a dvd, and it was only half an hour or so, so I got changed and went out.
I am definitely walking faster. But the running was harder tonight. I did just about manage the same as last night, but my legs felt very, very heavy. I might just go for a walk tomorrow, have a bit of a rest.
I haven’t stretched properly either. As I was approaching my house, this brand new Ford Fiesta starts beeping its horn at me, and I can see someone behind the wheel waving. It was my friend L! She also lives in Big Jugs, and her sister lives in one of the cul-de-sacs off my road.
She has just bought a new car - only picked it up yesterday - and took me for a brief spin around the block. Then she came in, and we had a good old gossip about work, and the new structure at the old pace I used to work at.
It was really good to see her, but it meant I didn’t cool down properly, and also I didn’t eat my dinner until late, I was starving!
Still, I am stepping in the right direction. I just need to keep it up.
