I GIVE UP

Well I'm blogging again today, I was going to stop as I just didn't feel in the right mood to carry on, does anybody ever read the stuff I write??? Maybe it's not about other people reading and more about me keeping a diary of my efforts or lack of them that is the key to carrying on.

I'm still flaming injured, sore Achilles, its rested, its stretched and it's not being put under the stress of running at the moment. I haven't run for 2 weeks, this is a regular thing at the moment, I've got a 5 mile run next Sunday, Easter Sunday across Runcorn Bridge, this is also Run for Fun's 1st anniversary run so I can't back out of that. It's so annoying and soul destroying that I cannot get into a regular 2 or 3 runs a week without feeling there is going to be pain at some point, perhaps I'm not meant to be the runner I want to be, maybe just a mid life crisis dream that I should just give up on and ride a bike instead.

Trying to get into my doctors surgery seems to be a hard thing at the minute, the Doctor who was recommended for sports injuries only works in the mornings so i can't see him, if I'm driving at 830am I miss out on the appointments so it's all about timing I think. Will keep trying next week before all the Doctors go on their Easter holidays, must be great to have all these holidays, still I'm lucky to be working so will have to wait for my turn, maybe taking up the offer of a trip to Morocco to do a half marathon there should be in my sights, bit of sun would be nice.
