Lent

As today is the first day of Lent I have decided to give up running.


For today.

After yesterday's 7 miles on the wrong day and the fact that I went to the theatre, (Northern Broadsides production of Shakespeare's Love's Labour's Lost since you ask and very good it was too) and got back late and not in the mood to run, I decided today was going to be a day off.

I have been running every day for 16 days straight and think I am due a day's break, after all, I am allowed one a week according to my schedule. I will be back on course tomorrow.

And as for Lent, I am giving up chocolate. Hopefully this will decrease my calorie intake and allow my to return to my running weight a little faster.
