I think a concussion is a good reason not to run, rather than an excuse. See how you feel in the morning?
V'rap - I'm thinking about asking for a Garmin for my birthday next month...it's already started!

I'm sitting at my desk wearing trainers, a wicking top and a sports bra, and with a Garmin in my handbag, and I don't even intend to run at work today :P

Or (back on topic) my excuse today is that the sun is shining and as soon as I get home and clear the work woo-woo out of my head I'll be on my bike :)

Got rat-arsed last night, danced for three hours and have tired legs.

(Might force myself out anyway, if nothing else than to get away from noisy kids.)

Hay fever seems to be a new excuse for me this year.

I'm always reading about rest is an important part of training. Therefore I think I'll focus on developing my ability to rest effectively today! ;)

I'm tired and it's raining, and we're going out tonight.
I'm with mudmeanderer on the resting I think :)

I've got work tonight (6pm onwards) so I can't run before, I won't have time (said around 9am); in the end I did force myself out but it's a tatic I've used before :)

I'm in need of an excuse for a PT session due at midday. Will I have a cold and my toe still hurts work? Also my shoulder isn't back to full strength. TBH I'm not sure what I am going to be able to do :-0
