Drive

The drive as opposed to my drive scuppered me today. Blocked in the car park and other folks collisions meant that I was not back until well after Seven meant that whilst I walked hand in hand with my momentum the chi deserted me by the time I arrived.
Long nights and rain ahead but they do not perturb me as I am still focused even though this week has shown some holes in my regime.
I have elected to get a new distance under my belt so that I do not feel as though I am treading water or even on a decline.
Time will tell. More precisely I am driven to show time.

After Work Overture

After a busy day I was, it appeared, destined to relax and to recuperate but when I eventually arrived it was not the torrent of earlier on so I donned a hoody, plugged myself into some Bonamassa blues and head out.
4-5 miles and it was easy as I took matters slow and steady.
Now I have yet to accomplish the first press up sets of week 3 of my challenge. I have decided to ramp it up and step to the top gear of the challenge to push myself further and more quickly....
14, 18, 14, 14 & 30.
My motivation and momentum should stay the whole day tomorrow and drive and inspire me.

My motivation and momentum is not at all diminished.
Happy times but not tonight...

Push over

10, 12, 9, 9, 21.
To test my recovery rate I waited a short while and then pressed to shaky stress exertion - 31.
I was pleasantly surprised.

Those were in the office with gaps that were too long between sets so I think I will crash out another block now!
Push ups in the office are a slightly sad and lonely affair but a welcome break from the files and better than nothing I suppose. I do like the idea of weekend exercise before working a few hours in the office very much indeed. Body, mind and soul catered for in that scenario. I may adopt that approach in what will be a very busy time leading up to Christmas. Strictly and The X have started and the childish are already counting their sleeps.

K not H

I was exhausted and empty when I arrived back from work but I know that tomorrow will be a rainy day and it will also be my depress down challenge, well tomorrow and or Saturday ?
I absolutely could not face the street but I am still motivated and can switch off to apathetic laziness - particularly when I have started a run - so I tuned in to Zeppelin and tried to tune out of my aching and my potential stitch.
I planned a 5 mile Abbey and back but I did it in reverse and chose some new roads, which turned out to be a mistake! Hill road is rather aptly named though it is so long and so steep it has sponsored the title of this post! I was wrecked after that and had a few bouts of walking up the inclines that remained.
6 miles but I can only really claim to have run 5; Hill Road is a challenge in itself and that I managed - just!

3 Miles maintenance run in Cardiff.
Bronwydd down to Roath Park, along one side of the park, up Celyn Avenue onto Cyncoed Road and then over to the top of Bronwydd and an easy drop down to the house.
It felt like more than 3 but I am putting that down to the cumulative aches of running most days and the box of wine and box of lardies I put away on Tuesday night!
After that the new challenge - 6,8,6,6,13 ( Max'd out at a rather shaky 13th). This is going to be tough I think ?

Flogging a Dead Horse

Absolutely no way I was going to run tonight!
Motivation and momentum were, as always, much on my mind and I knew that I had to run even though it was always going to be flogging a dead one up the street!
5 miles - Tesco, the Abbey and back.
Tomorrow I will return to the new challenge and I will be down with that! ( I may even sneak a Cardiff Standard 3 mile loop into the equation if time and the girls permit and I can time it so as to avoid my overly feared stitch. How very tame I am!)

Perfect 10

10 miles of pain every one of which I made through by concentrating on maintaining motivation. I was pleased but now, even several hours after I have finished and showered I am in a lot of pain.

Sights, sounds and smells of London all, largely, on foot for 3 days. It does not count as training but now I am back.
My plans for today are somewhat scuppered as I have M&J longer than anticipated which is great news but it will mean an early start for them tomorrow!!
I will be sneaking in a jog and a trip to the shops for equipment later on !!
Momentum to be redoubled!

Never Over The Clover

With Mia and Jazz dispatched upon Nelson walking maneuvers I stole an opportunity to run some.
I did an extended version of yesterdays figure 8, 3 loop clover run. Had to push the pace as I did not want to waste time when they were here.
Did about 5 miles up hill and down. Quite punishing but it did give me a chance to think and scheme and plan.
Will be missing my momentum and being able to act upon my motivation for the next 3 days but I will, I trust, return with renewed vigor.
I have planned the press up not depress down challenge and that too starts upon my return to training at the end of the weekend.
Already looking forward to my return!! Like Hannibal ( A Team that is ) I love it when a plan comes together.

In Clover

New route, three hoops which total about 5 miles.
Hills that made me lose all moisture in my mouth as though antiperspirant had been sprayed in !
Link that up with the Abbey Road run, or the Cadaxton run of yesterday and I can get some long local mileage built up. That said I do think I need a change of scenery and have debated Swansea to the Mumbles?
I have also challenged myself with some press ups to chase away any depress downs in September.
Blues deluxe again cheered the route.

Tintern ? Schmintern!

4 miles maintenance run - faster than I have been running so it was logarithmicaly more difficult.
Felt like I had to boot myself out of the house unceremoniously at the start but then after the initial pain I got into my stride and was happier.
I was bathed with perspiration which may stain.
Not paid myself for yesterday nor today yet - I am in debt !!

Name of the Cistercian Rose

My momentum took me to to complete disorientation today. I went for a short maintenance run but with my new baseline I felt physically up to the Abbey and back, besides, it is so surprising that I felt it warranted another viewing.
I ran to the abbey then I ran the river. On the other side of the bank sat an old man with a tired and drawn face staring straight at me. I returned the favor and his face fell and his head shook but throughout his eyes never left mine. I had to look ahead, after all I was running a winding gravel and grass path on the bank of a river. Eventually I hit a straight patch and looked back to where he had been but was no more.
On reflection I could not recall if he was wearing a hoody or a cassock?
I carried on running and became completely disorientated and completely lost. I ran to and through Sims metal yard, through the neath dock, back to the Burrows reservoir, out and about and all over until I found a familiar hill and relieved felt renewed on a familiar road home.
One hour and 45 minutes after I left I was opening the side gate.
About 6 and a half miles - by the time I got back I was shaking my rather tired and drawn head too.
The Abbey turns out to be haunted..........I wonder ?

Travelling Baseline

To keep maintain momentum and hope my motivation returns I decided upon a baseline run today. I ended up dishing out 5 miles thus setting a new base level. Things have improved week on week so it seemed the right time to reset ground on the altimeter.
Like Tommy Lee Jones in Under Siege I wish this to be a revolution not just a movement.
Neath Abbey 5 mile route is born - I walked the Abbey which is quite unexpected and striking but I ran the rest.
Tomorrow a motivational pick up will inspire me I am sure ??

Black Dog

I am not sure if I took my Black Dog for a run today or whether I was running from it but after about 8 miles and 1 hour 25 minutes of classic Zeppelin we had parted company.
8 miles was the task I set myself to achieve and with the mantra may as well get it done first as last resounding in my mind I can now blog that it is done.
It might not be a towering achievement but it adds to momentum and appeases motivation.
Now to relax.

No Sweat

I was awake today at the crack of noon following an afternoon of Bow and an evening and early morning of Stella, Red Wine, Cheese and business discussions with Den.
I could feel my funk of apathy descend, a nemesis to my regime, the day was going to be one of recovery and oblivion, I needed some enterprise.
I filled by lungs with air and set off like a ripsaw only to be beaten into submission by the first gradient.
I ran a brand new route all of it painful but, presumably doe to alcoholic dehydration I did not sweat at all until my return. I have been light headed a lot lately but this is the first time I thought I was going to faint on a run.
Too much to drink and smoke and too little sleep may have to be curtailed.
Still, it is done now and i am a smiler. I have set myself a little goal and target for next week - I will blog it if I achieve it.

I have been thrown a day off by life, though I did know that today was likely to be one of rest and absence from training momentum.
I am aching and will continue to drink now ( I have already imbibed ) until the new day.
I will return tomorrow pained and curtailed.

Street Legal

A sunny Friday afternoon in a quiet office after a busy week and a late night, early morning heavy drink in the house and on my own.
As you can well imagine all of my thoughts along with my motivation and momentum were in the pub and not on the road after a very long, dull and slow drive back west.
I was heading over to the chilled prosecco when I remembered that I should be thankful for the good weeks I have and have ahead so I plugged myself in and Bob Dylan tore me out of the door and on a 5 miler with his Street Legal album.
I feel happy now that it appears some momentum stayed with me even though I felt it was in the pub luring me away from the long road.
Now, where is that fizzy wine?

He Calls His Beard Count Nicholas

I was unhappy on the way to work today but when I arrived I heard two gents elucidating the title and the morning was grand.
After lunch I felt that my motivation was escaping me and this continued through the afternoon and the journey to Skewen seemed to take an age.
I drove myself and made myself don the trainers and head out. I drained the sand from the hourglass and even though I was sore I went soft and steady and then lost myself in the trance which comes with a run that allows me to lose myself.
It was a new route and I kept on so that my momentum took over and I came good.
I did 5 as an estimate, I will pick up tomorrow and be inspired, I hope!
Thirsty Thursday now and tonight.
I am thinking of my prize for running frequently this month, my jar is not yet replete!
Between tunes on my pod i sound like a grumbling miserable sod when I am running, after 'Something' by the beatles and the next tune I was forced to expectorate and it sounded like I grumbled and then muttered "bitch" under my breath! Not really appropriate for the polite dog walking community I thought! Thank God I cannot hear myself through the course ( coarse ) as I would not wish children to hear my exhausted expletives!!

Momentum - Motivation

I did not tilt the hourglass today. Instead I went for a sojourn that was better within my time constraints.
I ran for a little under 3 miles but I did so only because of my momentum and motivation which is great!
My legs ached at the start from the excesses of yesterday but I did not want to stop challenging so I was driven both today and yesterday.
Tomorrow I hope I will be able to drive myself - i am having far more good days than bad at the moment and long may that continue.
The new plot for a self created challenge has hatched and is worth consideration, thought and planning!

The Qi of Running

I managed the longest run of this season today. I tricked myself with a new route which coalesced with my, now pleasingly standard, routine.
The trick, if that is what it is, was to persuade myself throughout that I had not reached the halfway stage so there was no point in even considering the duration as a whole. All the way I thought I was physically finished but I managed to keep it up for over an hour and when I saw the finish line I could still manage a frantic sprint.
Cheeky but pleasing! No one runs a marathon they run 26 separate miles one after the other.
It is all in the head!
As an addendum : Champagne, Peroni and Caffrey's in glorious excess made up the rest of my evening and the morning after I have an ache in my head which exceeds the ache in my legs!

Achilles Last Stand

I have it in my mind to do more this week.
I set out today, after a weekend of toxing and taxing lack of sleep, with good intentions.
After three I had nothing whatever in reserve but I was ultimately motivated to jog again to Tesco and back.
Each time is different and each route alters only ever so slightly but the changes do make everything fresh and interesting and new.
Lavender in the air and new tunes on the pod made today memorable and made sure i completed the run even in pain and adversity.

Missing Inaction

Early hours to bed once again meant that I was weary this morning. I did take a jaunt to pick up some milk but that was by car and by far the best journey of weekend. I was reminded of heading to church on a Sunday morning of my youth for some reason?
They still commune with God on a Sunday.
I selected a later hour for a run but I nodded off while reading about the fresh lunacy of Ollie Reed and when I woke the time for exercise had well and truly passed.
Tomorrow I redouble my efforts.

Going Ape

No training yesterday, a Friday which marked the close of what was an unexpectedly good week.
Post work was taken over by an evening of setting the world straight over huge amounts of Stella followed by a nourishing ruby and post meal tins of Stella at Mum and Dads until I collapsed and crashed out.

Today I ran a standard 3 or so miles to sweat the poisons from me and to get me back on track. To finish the run I did go ape and did my best to sprint a finish!

I missed it and missed out yesterday - obsessive compulsive in some regards.

Motivation

Nothing in the tank, no motivation and no desire to leave. My strongest urge was to stay sprawled on the sofa and doze.
Ultimately I donned my daps, plugged myself into the iPod and tried to ignore the aching at the start of a run.
Tesco and back - with a short walk up the steepest part of the climb back to Skewen.
At least 5 miles so I will reward myself with pennies for my jar.
I have yet to decide my prize if I stay on the road long enough to build up some meaningful cache.

Route 1

Another day when I felt that I could not manage which turned into what I think is an addiction taking hold immediately that I started.
I suspected that one mile would be all that I could dream to achieve but once the motor is running it seems such a waste to stop.
New routes and changes of direction which are apparently random add significant spice and the pedometer keeps ticking.
Had to be 5 miles with a sprint at the end which raised the game and had me giggling to myself.
Chuffed!
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers provided a most refreshing soundtrack.
Then my special, isotonic, Bow and Stella for recovery and reconstitution of the old sinews.
The ankle is recovering but I think my low arches are going to be problematical if the regime continues?

Waiting For Columbus

I had decided that 2 miles would be more than sufficient for the second outing after a break of 10 days, I am shattered and the week of booze and take away food and no sleep and stress has caught up.

I elected for Waiting for Columbus disc 1 as it had been some little time since I had listened to what is one of the great live recordings, set it up and stepped out for my brief jog.

7 tracks and just under 40 minutes later I returned with a pain in my ankle but a smile on my face. It turns out that with the correct motivation two good runs on the trot can be achieved and, dare I say it, enjoyed !

I now need to scrabble about to find some cash for my motivation jar as lack of reddies would have made a shorter jog more appropriate too.

I am guessing at 4-5 miles ?

Paternity Leave

Birthday celebrations and a week of activities with the girls caused a halt to my regime of the occasional run but I have returned fatter, more exhausted and apathetic than ever.

I have decided upon a plan of good old fashioned bribery and blackmail to inspire me. To that end I am going to pay myself a mileage rate for road running and to save to some end I have yet to decide upon.

I did 3 and a bit today listening to tunes from Dylan, The Chillies, Little Feat, Springsteen, SRV, Nilsson, Percy Sledge and Miles Davies.

Now to find a glass jar to pop my hard earned in full view !!

Blowfish

Shuffle landed me on Hootie & The Blowfish as I was stepping out. I was sent back to a stag party years ago so I listened to the whole album which became a theme of the weekend as no one had brought any other tapes with them !! Cracked Rear View - H&TB. Did about 4 miles of 90's memorabilia. The small of lasts nights consumption of Strongbow also took me back to that same weekend away !

Blue Rinse

Joe Bonamassa - Blues Deluxe first eleven tracks. That is music to live, love and run by!! I think it was just shy of a 10k ? Now for beers and smokes in celebration of the run and in celebration of the end of Mia's childhood and the start of her adolescence. I need to get new locks for the doors and bars for the windows !!

I did more walking than I would have wanted but 3 days of excess each continuing past 3am along with the scorching conditions made my hopes hopelessly optimistic.

Blues in the rain.

Squeeze, Tom Petty, Led Zep, Santana, Neil Young and Crazy Horse and more...everything seems to be the blues when you are running in the rain ! Slightly further, slightly more walking, the stiffness of limb was a factor at the start but not as bad as it could have been or has been in the past. I will take that as a positive.
