Bad boy!

It was all going so well. On Thursday morning I did a yoga session before some hill reps. Following my pathetic end to my 19 mile run on Sunday where I was going backwards on the hills, I decided I needed to work harder on the hills. So far so good but then I went out with my best friend for a couple of pints and a pizza.  Fatal.  Without boring you with all the details of the various establishments (food and drink!) we visited it's fair to say that when I got up for yoga at 5.50am I wasn't fit to walk, never mind drive, never mind survive an hours intensive yoga in a hot room. So back to bed I went and public transport was the order of the day!
As a serious endurance athlete you will understand that going through the pain barrier is important as it allows you to draw on this experience when it gets tough. My first meeting today was on a complicated subject, in a small room where the thermostat was at 26.5 degrees when I walked in.  It was as though someone had tipped them off!  The heat and the dehydration reminded me of the desert!  The endurance theme continues because I am at a black tie Burns supper tonight with a client. It's always a good evening but I can assure you this "bad boy" will be sticking to the non-alcoholic drinks tonight so I will be in a fit state to train all weekend. Lesson learned, again!
