Will only run if bribed - Janathon Day 3

Nature's Mars Bar!

Well the less the said about the distance the better really. 1/2 a mile is 1/2 a mile - there's not much else to say except that the headache situation is getter mucho better now that I have been reunited with my inhalers. YAY. Hoping for bigger things running-wise tomorrow.

To distract you from my continuing running inepitutude, I thought I'd share my internal monologue prior to tonight's run:

"Do I really need to go - no-one would be any the wiser"
"Tut, tut, you're not suggesting what I think you're suggesting?"
"It's coooooooold"
"It is cold, but if you run to the second pelican crossing, I'll buy you a banana"
SCORNFULLY: "A banana"
"Yup, full of natural sugar - Nature's Mars Bar!"
"Make it a peach yoghurt and you're on"
"It's a deal BUT only cos it's week 1"

{I know it's Fat Sin 101 to reward yourself with food but in my experience it's really the only thing that gets results and this was an emergency}

Now instead of being shocked that I'm still battling to get further than 0.5 mile, you're all now amazed that I manage any running distance whatsoever, considering the amount of mental (in both senses!!) subterfuge that goes on in my head. xx
