A lot of people that I know seem to really dislike running alone and much prefer to meet up with a few friends when they go for their run. For me however I enjoy running alone, this time by myself and away from the distractions of everyday life gives me time to think about things … Continue reading Antisocial Runner?

Today Was Not A Good Day
Today started out well enough, I managed to get up early to go for a run. I managed to run for a little bit over 6km even though it was very windy and a bit rainy outside. My commute into work was also pretty standard and uneventful (there was a bit of flooding on the … Continue reading Today Was Not A Good Day
Reducing My Sugar Intake
I generally find it quite difficult to get though the afternoon without having a few snacks. This is because I when I am getting up at just gone 5am I need to have an early lunch. This then means that I am getting hungry again by 2:30-3pm and I need to have a snack or … Continue reading Reducing My Sugar Intake

To the extent that I am hesitant to tell people that I am vegan sometimes, even when it is relevant to the conversation or context. I don't think that this impression is helped by a very vocal minority of … Continue reading Not All Vegans Are Angry
Week 9 – Difficult Week
I have found this week quite difficult, not so much in terms of the running but in terms of the time of year and a bunch of other things. Firstly, I haven't had a good chunk of time off for a while, this means that I am really feeling the need for a good rest … Continue reading Week 9 – Difficult Week
The Benefits of Morning Runs
A couple of weeks back I moved back from lunchtime to morning runs and I have found that this is a much better set up for me. Although it is still really difficult waking up so early in morning when it is still dark and cold there are still a number of benefits. If I … Continue reading The Benefits of Morning Runs
I’m Not The Fastest
I know quite a few runners and I think all of them run at a faster pace than I do at the moment. I am not saying that this is always owing to be the case but at the moment I am still in the processes of improving my fitness levels and that means that … Continue reading I’m Not The Fastest
