A short update this morning, essentially because this
only counts as a run in the very loosest sense of the word. I woke up this
morning with a nasty headache – it was a nice day, so I thought I’d go outside
and hope that the fresh air would help it to ease a bit. Unfortunately when I
went out I could pretty much feel it thumping through my head every time I took
a step – and for those who are uninitiated in the way of running, there are
quite a few steps involved in it.
I’d planned out my route, but very quickly I decided to
readjust it for a shorter one that took me back past my house, in the vein of
Monday’s run. This time, though, I couldn’t even bring myself to do that, and I
stopped at about the twelve minute mark and walked back.
I was slightly disappointed to have the first morning
where I didn’t complete the allotted run, but at least this wasn’t to do with
being out of breath or unfit. (Although I don’t think I was particularly well
this morning; I had a stitch-like pain in my side from the warm-up walk which
was my first sign that things probably weren’t going well).
Having gone back home and had some paracetamol and lots
of water, I’m feeling a bit better now, so hopefully it was just a short-term
thing. Over the past two weeks I have now done the week 8 podcast three times,
so I feel qualified to move on to the final set of podcasts next week – and the
last three blog posts.
This time next week, I might be free from Laura forever!
Ache-illes
