Hell yeah!
It was most encouraging to see CharlieCat5 and that beloved rascal and linguaphile RC freak Tom Roper hit May off for an athletic six with their long jaunt in the Downs yesterday or thereabouts. My month also started well with a strong, 'feeling great' 12km uphill slog on the second day of the month. Tomorrow sees a mightier effort scheduled, with a full uphill half marathon on the cards.
But wait, there's more! Well, no, actually, there isn't more, as such. A trip to the doctor this afternoon confirmed what I feared - a bacterial infection which requires the application of a 'specific' course of antibiotics taken every six hours (no more, no less) with demanding periods of fasting either side of said antibiotic intake. In short, a pain in the arse, or at least, as big a pain in the arse as an oral medication can be. Well OK, in the greater scheme of things it's not too much to ask I suppose, but it was a bit unexpected and therefore a little frustrating.
But anyway, having previously learned my lesson on such topics, I didn't mention to the doc the small matter of my running 20km (entirely uphill) tomorrow, and so he didn't forbid it. So I'm doing it.
Woot!
I'll report back after ... looking forward to it, too, I am.
Whoa, did I really say that?
I must be sick.
