W4R2, starting to get twitchy on rest days!

The weekend was pretty much spent chilling out on the couch due to the weather, but by the time it got to Sunday morning I was starting to feel twitchy, like I needed to burn off some energy. I ended up going to the gym on Sunday morning to do some cycling and light running on the treadmill - that's a first for me!

Did W4R2 last night after a crazy day - my flight was cancelled (thanks Dennis!) so I had to catch numerous trains to get to my work meeting. Half of them were cancelled and the half were delayed - yeah, one of those days. However the run was great for clearing my mind and working off frustration. Really starting to feel the mental benefits of running now.

We can blame Dennis for everything, but it was good that you did get your run done and feel better for it, running they say does relieve a lot of tensions for people, enjoy run 3 of week 4.

Thanks AlMorr, I don't know if I'll enjoy run 3 while I'm doing it but I'm sure I'll enjoy it once it's done!
