Yep, I think so.....
There just wasn't enough room in my life for the three of us. While me and metric had fun initially, the lure of imperial was to irresistible. Lets hope
we have a long and productive relationship
if my running goes to pot, I'm blaming this change

Today I had planned to put myself under a bit of pressure... And I did
Left the house this evening to see a lot of rain and fairly blustery... Sh1te...
Decided to go out easy and try to up the pace and see how I'd get on.
8:56
8:11
7:23
7:01
6:39
8:24
8:03
I must say, I found it tough going on the last pace mile(6:39). I may even had some wind assistance but was huffing and puffing by the end...
During the 2 cool down miles, I came across a damsel in distress... Flat tyre. She was trying to pump it with a foot pump but not really getting anywhere. I told her I lived about 10 mins away and wound be back with electric pump.
True to my work, I went back after the run with said pump and a headtorch, well kitted out
Turned out the tyre looked to have been slashed
Changed the tyre for her and sent her on her way. She tried to throw me a fiver as it was all she had but I couldn't take it, It would ruin my good deed for the day..... 0 -

Took is reasonably handy, although the wind was marking it harder than it should have been. Dirty night out there......
I have accepted that the weather will be unpredictable
for the next month regarding wind and rain so I better just get on with it 0 -

Fridays run: Happy to get the run in before the works drinks party, but really should have been a lot slower. Garmin went a bit gaga at the start. 1 mile beeped around 4-5 hundred meters down the road with a mile pace of 4:30 :eek::eek: I wish Stopped it and reset for new activity, and off I went again... Sometimes I wonder about this 310xt....
The drinks thing was actually good craic, but probably not the best for the body. Pints of bulmers were flowing and hit the vodka when I got full of cider.... Kebab on way home to... Delicious every now and then
Saturdays run: Feeling rough as heck all day but dragged my ass out for a run this evening. Again, should have been a lot slower but just went with the flow. Glad I did it in the end. Feeling less guilty ant the kebab now
From next week I'm going to have to get my LSRs back on track. I've let them slip a lot over the last few weeks...0 -

Felt nice and relaxed doing this. Kept a good eye on the watch to keep it slow and consistent.
Plenty of wind and rain out there, but it was really a joy seeing so many runners out there this evening braving it... Plenty of nods of respect out there... Nice feeling 0 -

Nice run today, got out around midday which was a novelty for me
7:58, 7:53, 7:20, 7:18, 7:02, 6:59, 8:25
Felt good during it, didn't overdo it, just enough to stop myself from daydreaming about winning olympic medals 0 -

It'll take more guff than that to rattle him, he's well used to my ways at this stage I'm like a little puppy pug and he's a prizewinning greyhound 0 -

Nice little run. As usual, didn't follow what I had planned to the letter, but not to far off.
Few strides thrown in at the end for a change
Fields of Athenry 10k on St Stephens day. There's a couple of flyers on here doing it. I hope they wait around the extra 7/8 mins it will take me to finish.....0 -
