It's official: I haven't run in nine days. NINE. Not a single step. WHILE on the Comrades training programme (and nope, it's not part of the programme...) - YIKES!
Before you think I'm going to dish out a list of sad, soppy excuses - I'm not. Life happened and I dealt with it. I gave it my best shot. And that shot didn't include running. I wanted to; I yearned to. My running shoes and Garmin even accompanied me on every single business trip. But, alas, I was just too tired to run. Twelve-hour fieldwork days; work meetings continuing until two in the morning; stressful presentations and situations; and full-day workshops - it all just took it's toll. My body said: "No".
But, thankfully, this pity party won't last much longer: With fieldwork done, meetings over, and reports completed, the body is once again saying: "Go!". Bring on that scheduled 13.1 mile training run!
