Once again, I am a slacker

Once again, I have slacked in my training. This never used to happen when I lived in London. In London, I had a routine of running home (6 miles) from work once a week and then a long run on a Saturday morning that I rarely missed (we’ll forget that training shouldn’t really consist of fewer than three runs a week). Since moving, I haven’t trained properly for a single race. Today’s excuse is that it was after 8 when I got up and it would have been too late to run after having breakfast as I feel guilty if I go for a run when I should be studying or working.

I even had some pretty purple Brooks Pure Flow running shoes to try out.

Oh well, they’ll have to wait for another time. I’m definitely going for a run on Saturday morning, no matter how late I get up (feel free to swear at me if you see me on Twitter saying ‘got up too late to run, bah’), so maybe I’ll wear them to the gym tomorrow (I’ve also slacked off going to the gym since being back at university, no wonder I’m sleeping so badly at the mo).

I did force myself out for a short bike ride yesterday after lunch. Maybe I’ll go for a run at lunchtime…
