From 17th February
Following yesterday's failure to run in the rain I valiantly set my alarm clock for 5.45am so as to do my run a day late but without looking or feeling like I'd been thrown out of the ark. At 10.30 last night I put the alarm back to 6.15am still with the intention of getting out of bed and running.
I should explain that I have a past history of trying to run in the morning and totally and utterly failing to leave the safety of my duvet. The night before it always seems like such a sensible idea to run in the cold and dark of the early morn, to see the sun come up and then have my evening free to do all kinds of other things in it. I have never, ever managed to actually do this...until today!
This morning I awoke before my alarm went off, had my cup of tea (essential mental need before doing anything), put on my running gear and left not just my duvet but my flat and my street and throughly enjoyed my 6 mile run. Well to be honest I enjoyed most of it. Whether I'm now converted to early morning running remains to be seen but I'm giving myself a pat on the back for all my efforts and indulging in a round of applause!
