Where did the month go ??????

Almost the end of the month !!!

No blogging because not much has happened during the month. I ran/walked the Caboolture marathon a few weeks ago in a time best quickly forgotten but at least I finished. Took a week to run another step and it has been some reasonably frequent training once I got started.

My weight is still higher than I want. I need to be more focused on getting not so much what I eat but maybe the portions are a little too much for the reduced running. But increasing the running will need a slighter larger portion size. Why does being healthy and fit seem to be very complicated and maybe requiring some degree of control quite a lot of the time.

Anyway a BIG weekend. I always has planned to run the Orange marathon on Sunday then I discovered there was a charity event with a marathon conducted as laps of the Bay on Saturday morning. I have debated since I found out if I could do the double with all of my lack of fitness. I was very undecided and then as they say 'bit the bullet' and entered this morning.

Worst outcome I withdraw and walk home early.

I do not usually highlight and article but ...

New month, new focus. Hopefully ?

A new month and a new focus to get back into regular training. This is going to be somewhat of a battle as a side affect of the hormone injections I am now receiving is FATIGUE. I am experiencing that as I have very little desire to run. Let me put it this was I want to run and train but fighting against that in my mind is that I a am tired (physically not from lack of sleep) and running is just too difficult.

Hard to explain exactly what goes on in my head but the result is that despite being up and wanting to run I don't. This was happening all through November and December and I thought I would move through it.

I am not sure if I have or haven't but my intention is to get a streak going and going and going and .....

Anyway my streak stands at 2. 2 laps of the Bay in 2 days. It is a start. A bit like when I got out of detox and rehab there was day one of being booze free and then day 2 and so on. Now at 18 years.
