I went to bed on Thursday night, sleeping the sleep of the just. I was full of virtuous intent, of big dreams of waking up at 5:30 to go for a long run. In fact, I was pretty sure I had set the alarm.
When I woke up, it was almost 7, and I was pretty late for work, let alone for a run.
How did this happen? I think some level of my consciousness, not buried too deeply, didn’t want me to run and sabotaged my wake-up-early plan.
It was probably for the best, my legs were still sore from the stupid speed session I did at Thursday lunch-time. That wasn’t all that much fun.
What was so hard? Well, we just did 2 fast laps of the Fitzroy Gardens (7:08 and 7:24 were my times), followed by a bunch of full-on sprints up hill and some back and forth stuff. I am so slow, and so out of shape for this sort of stuff.
Ah well, whatever doesnt’ kill me, and all that jazz.
Running
The speed session on Thursday, and 13 point something ks on Friday night.
World Cup
I watched my first game last night – France vs Uruguay. To be accurate, I watched bits of it, slumped on the couch, drifting in and out of consciousness. I didn’t see any goals, but that’s probably because there weren’t any.
How annoying are the vuvuzela? (sp?) It sounds like they’re playing in the middle of the world’s largest bee hive. I think I’m going to have to watch the games with the sound off.
