The best inspiration is not to outdo others, but to outdo ourselves

For the first time in a very long time, I think it really was a mistake to be out there this morning. I'm still feeling very bunged up, and while I got up fine, as soon as I started running it didn't seem like such a good idea. I don't think it was the rain either, I'd put on a shower proof jacket and it wasn't too cold, so I didn't really care about that bit. In the end I cut it short and just did 3 miles instead of 4, it simply wasn't happening today, it just felt like a grind. I'll have a good rest over the weekend, try and shake off the 'lergy' as my sister is calling it and then hopefully be fine to return to it with enthusiasm next week.
