My mind's run out - again...

So... deep breath.... I did it, I managed to submit something, tho not what I had planned, before my virtual deadline of 00.00 on 31/10. Wish it wasn't sooooo difficult. Its harder even than trying to run for 10k and probably takes me even longer! I can't count the number of times I've carefully constructed eloquent phrases and witty descriptions in my head while out running, but by the time I've peeled out of my running gear and slotted into 'normal' life, its all gone! While I'm out my mind is bursting with questions about pace, training techniques, fartleks, tackling hills, the importance of heart-rate etc etc but on my return... who know's where those thoughts disappear.

There are so many really brilliant posts on this site, whether long or short, that are interesting, fun and full of detail, including song titles and playlists. Amazing! I'm really impressed and would so like to do this too. Whats your secret???

Stuff my original November goal of walking/running far enough to receive 3 postcards for my efforts on LEJOG6 ie 150 miles - I just need to work on drafting short simple questions and posting an update when I have an achievement!

Happy running everyone....

I know what you mean Jiveblue, I sometimes write a post in my head and then by the time I’m all done, stretched, fed and watered it’s either dropped out of my head or the moment is past....very well done on your 10k and keep posting 🤗
