Breaking the Spell


Been abit shaky since my post marathon jitters but thanks to a long 2 day walk along the six-foot track last weekend i have got abit of perspective......

Firstly chilling out abit and mixing things up with cross-training, hiking, elliptical isnt the end of the world, in fact its a bloody good break from monotony....

Secondly, there is nothing wrong with abit of time to step back, see the physio, work on my biomechanics, before charging ahead to the next marathon...

Somehow running can get you in a mindset that its hard to get out of..sort of like an obsession or an addiction...it took me a long walk to see that....

Anyway, after 2 weeks I feel like Im getting back to four runs per week, taking it easy, enjoying it and not stressing....

Today I ran on the treadmill for a change and without really thinking about it ran five kms under 5mins/k........

Non-attachment...non-attachment.....Ill leave the last word to the beauty of Flica..
