motivation

I seem to be missing it at the moment.

I haven't been for a run in over a week - but that's mostly because I've been working 10-12 hour days for the last eight out of nine, and I am (understandably) tired after that. But, I'm off today and I just can't seem to find the gung-ho to go running in the rain. Probably because it's actually raining. Anyway, I'll see if I feel like it a little later on, and if not, then will force myself tomorrow. I'm just a little worried about what this has done to my schedule. I'm not sure I can do week four again... I'll try but might be stuck on it for another week. It was hard last time, and now I haven't been in ages, it's going to be even harder!

So, I haven't got much to update, because (as I said) I've been working like a madwoman. Monday to Thursday, Friday off, and then Saturday to Tuesday. I'm finally off today and I don't want to do anything - but I'll have to go to the grocery store later as we're out of just about everything!

Tomorrow I'm making Kimchi fried rice - I picked up some kimchi a couple of weeks ago when I was in Tottenham Court road, and Tom has been bugging me to make it... But I just haven't had time. If you don't marinate the pork for a few hours, it just isn't as good. I've also looked up a few other Korean recipes and am planning on trying my hand at them again in the near future.

I guess that's it for now... just a quick update... until we meet again!

don't worry about those days you can't get out there - sometimes it just doesn't happen. I started to feel guilty about not running and then it became almost like a chore which is the exact opposite of what I originally wanted to run for! i read somewhere once that if you don't have the motivation, just make the effort to put your running clothes on and see what happens. You may just decide 'oh well, i'm ready anyway..' or you may not but this trick always helps me (esp when facing rain running! ;)) decide if my body wants to run or needs a break .. keep at it lady! your a runner now :)

When you're tired and bored, usually the idea of running out in the rain isn't much look like fun.
