I have been struggling to get up in the morning in time to go for a run before work. To be fair this would mean that I would have to wake up at about 5:20am and at this time of the year that time in the morning still feels like the middle of the night … Continue reading Switching To Lunchtime Runs

Although this week was a short week it still felt longer than most. I think that the main reason for this is staying up so late on New Years eve but also going back to work after a couple of weeks off and exercising more than usual. There were a couple of nights this week … Continue reading Challenge Week 1

Season of Good Will?
