I didn't complete today runs and yes I am a little disappointed because I know I can do it, because I did it already last week. I didn't have breakfast this morning, I ate chocolate biscuits at my parents this afternoon and I didn't have my banana before I went jogging and only had a small glass of water before I went. So I think I failed before I even started. Oh and I'd already walked for 20 minutes to get home before I went jogging.
Started out OK nice even pace got to the half way point and thought OK this is good, then all of a sudden I started to flag, got to about 18 minutes and had to stop. I paused the podcast and caught my breath for about 30 seconds then stated the podcast again, then I had to stop for a delivery van to turn, so then I continued to walk for a minutes or so then started jogging again. I got further up the road and a lady indicated to turn into her drive and she waived me on, but I could take one more step so waived her on, and She gave me the biggest smile and thumbs up, I think she knew I was done for. lol I walked the rest of the way home. I'm not devastated by not finishing I do feel a bit disappointed but hey ho thats how it goes sometimes. On to the next run and hopefully it will be better.
Happy jogging all.

But it is strange how you can achieve a time or distance one time and not the next. I was banjaxed by a lot of steep steps towards the end of the run this morning (runner's excuse no 234). Started off two at a time, then had to walk when I got to the top. Stopping is a killer, and so seductive - it doesn't take much to disturb my fragile equilibrium...
