I am feeling guilty about not starting running again yet. I told myself I'd start when I got to sixteen stone, and here I am, fourteen and a half, and still no start to it. I keep making excuses... people will stare at me coz I'm still too fat... I didn't get to sleep early enough to get up so early... I'll hurt my dodge left knee. None of these things are insurmountable. I really just need to suck it up and get on with it. I know I'll be glad when I do. And if I want to run the Belfast marathon again next May, and do it under five hours (my first and only attempt took six hours, twenty-five minutes and eleven seconds, I'd like to better that by a good margin) then I'd better start running again soon, get up to par with the 5k distance, and work from there.
I feel as if I've gotten a handle on the food side of things at the moment (I can never afford to get complacent and say it's completely under control) so my lack exercise is letting me down. I'm aware that I can't be 100% perfect, no one can, and at least I've started going for a few walks with TMM, but I'd be a lot happier if I was doing a wee bit more.
