Woke up this morning...

...in dire need of inspiration.
Of late I have been slacker than a flabby thing in a sluggish place.
I don't even have any valid excuses.
Haven't been to the gym or run around the streets or park for about two weeks.
I got out of my pit at six o'clock, made some coffee and put on a documentary about Eddie Izzard running a Marathon a day for charity back in 2009. He only had two weeks prep before he ran 
I admire him for his focus and determination. He didn't take any notice of the people that told him that he couldn't do it he just ran at his own pace and kept putting one foot in front of the other until the job was done.
He was forty seven, my age at the end of this month. With dreams of running my own marathon one day I took myself of to the gym.

Treadmill.
Time 57.37mins
Cals 350
Distance 5.23km
AvSp 5.23kph
AvHr 135Bpm

I did the C25K week two day one again, twice.
I'll try not to compare myself with other people of different fitness levels or try to mimick their training techniques. I'll just go at my own pace and keep it feeling fun.
I haven't been keeping my asthma in check recently either. I think that has a lot of influence on how I feel mentally and physically. I find it difficult to remember my meds when I am feeling good. Need to start forming new habits.
Meeting My son Joe later. Don't know what we will do but I am looking forward to it though.
