Don’t know if I like rest days.<\/p>\n
Part of me says “Run … just a bit”.<\/p>\n
Most of me restlessly rests. I get up at the same time as running days anyway. Sleep just isn’t a comfort thing. Or more accurately, my comforts don’t need to sleep – but that’s another story.<\/p>\n
The real me is looking forward to the long run early tomorrow morning. Two maybe three and a bit hours of free running and roaming.<\/p>\n
My running conscience nags. “Enough of this morning running. Run late afternoons,” it says and goes on and on. “You’ve got this early morning rising routine and running at 5:30 am ingrained. But it’s not enough. You might end up running at 5 pm too.” It is a bit encouraging. “Don’t worry, you won’t have to still be running at 5:29 pm. You’ve done enough.”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n But I do like rest days. One thing is I don’t have to do anything about running, no lace up shoes, no extra washing. I can relax with the first coffee and orange of the day. I know it’s doing me good not to run again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Don’t know if I like rest days.
