Well, this week has not been particularly good for my running, among other things. Just in case you were wondering if I’d been out there putting down the miles so fast and furiously that I hadn’t been able to write about it - well - I haven’t. In fact, I haven’t run at all since my last entry.

Actually that’s not 100% true. I have noticed a tendency to do things like turning a trip out to get the mail into a set of 100m butt-kicks, which feel pretty good. But that doesn’t really count as ‘distance’ now, does it?

It would be nice to say that I was going to get in a solid seven at some point today, but that’s not looking very likely unless I run in the late, late evening. At this point, I’m more inclined to write off my mid-week running and just look forward to tomorrow’s 22+ miler. Yikes!

Last weekend I had updated my blog software to MT3. So far I have yet to be able to turn off comment moderation (and yes, I’ve found the flags, and they’re all set ‘correctly’ as far as I can tell). So please bear with me for a little while longer if your messages don’t show up immediately (sorry, Meghan).

I also haven’t been keeping up with other people’s running. I will do my best to catch up this weekend, I promise. Hopefully you’ve all been able to make more of a commitment to yourselves, and your health, than I have lately. With a 30K race next weekend and the marathon a month after that, I can’t just sit on my arse right now!

Until tomorrow… do as I say, not as I do, and keep on running.
