I'm another one who struggles when the weather is being a moon.

The guy in studio 3 (opposite me) has moved out today so I can start moving my stuff across tomorrow. Thankfully it's not far to move but there's lots to do!

Legs are surprisingly good today. I usually run Tuesday mornings but have a meeting at 9.30 so I'll run tomorrow night instead. The weather will probably be crap.

This weather is too depressing

Especially when your bus is over 20 mins late! Still made it to PT on time and we had a good chat about the next phase of training :)

Got out for a hour today 6.7 miles - first time in a week. Having builders in alongside going through the bureaucracy following mum's death has reduced both the opportunities for running and the desire.
Not beating myself up about it. I'll take what opportunities I can, and get properly back into it once the rush is over

Don't go blaming yourself for being weak-willed, Diogenes. If tired, rest; or do something pleasantly relaxing.

:-) morning 700ers heart
One of the little psychology models is a venn diagram with how you perceive yourself overlapping with how you want to be, and self esteem in the middle. To big up the self esteem you have to adjust expectations or productivity. Usually both. One step at a time, in almost any direction, is all we can do, and having a plan can both limit the backtracking and crush you so its all a balance innit :-p

Morning:)
On my way home now, just crossed into Switzerland, looking forward to getting some fitness back and losing a bit of the lard.

Dipps, that’s way too complicated for my little brain, especially at this time of the morning.
