Getting a grip!

Having just re-read my previous post, I realise just how much I must have thrown my toys out the pram on Sunday at Sedbergh! To be honest in the cold light of day I’m being more realistic and more pragmatic. Its not like I’m a honed athlete and I don’t take this as seriously as it sounds like I do in that post!! I don’t Train with a big T, although I am continually looking to get fitter and faster I do have more to my life than running and realistically I’m not prepared to give up all that!

Still doing worse than expected does lead to a bit of navel gazing and I have been doing that. I’m not sure what the outcome will be but in the short term I’m just going to enjoy the next few weeks, the LDMT is in mid-September, I might do a local 10k race before that, and see what else comes my way! Its then into the longer dark nights and I always find this allows me to refocus and I will probably end up doing a bit of Training with a big T!
