I'm finding it unusually hard to kick-start my running. Saturday came and went, along with a succession of lame excuses, and Sunday was a complete non-starter for no other reason than it was cold - but really cold. (Is it my imagination or is this winter far, far colder and gloomier than last? This time last year I was merrily pounding the streets in training for the Bath half-marathon, today I'm struggling to drag myself out the door).
I think I must be in the 'contemplation' phase, certain that 'action' is just around the corner!
Like the girl in the picture, I'm having a rest. I need to be psychologically prepared as well as physically.
Or maybe I should just man up and get out there.
