Blackwater, Rotation 6 of 10, Day 4 of 11...

Last night was 11 days since my previous run! My mind is still keen to run, but at the end of a long day on site, my body generally can't be bothered.

But yesterday - I needed to do something to reset the frustration meter! Life here is bad enough without having to deal with arseholes.

Anyway, 7.47km in 43:47 at 5:50/km pace was an excellent way to unwind and remind my body what exercise is. Whilst I was running with my Imaginary Friend, I didn't pay too much attention to where he was. Although he does advise me when we complete each km so that's when I have a drink.

I saw the date for the Sydney Morning Herald Half Marathon was announced for 21st May 2006. This will probably be the next event that I run. So I should really think about setting a target time for that and make sure I commit to a training programme to achieve that goal.

If I publish 1:45 now - is that a commitment? I guess so.
