‘Somewhere during the night you will hear a voice say, “Why am I doing this? I am never doing this again!” Look forward to this voice. Welcome it. Laugh at it. Embrace it. Look forward to hearing it again next year. Just know that it will come and that you will ride past it and be stronger when it fades into the shadows.’

There is time for pain tomorrow™
If I ever realise one of my goals of opening a running shop, I’ll create a sideline in clothing with this catch phrase. I was thinking this running last night. Coming off a slight back niggle, about 4 miles into the run I was considering stopping because my back felt sore. Sensible in many cases, but I am not sensible. So I did what I’ve done many a time – told myself that I could worry about it hurting later, and took it easy for the next mile. I think that this is the only way – within reason – I’ll achieve my goal of having an injury free year.
