Saturday 10th December.

A bright and crisp day. A heavy frost had made it a bit slippery underfoot so I decided to have a lie-in and go for my run later when it had warmed up. My back was stiff and sore after doing a lot of driving yesterday, so I though I would only go for a short run off- road and see how it felt once I was out. As usual, once I got running, all thoughts of only going out for a couple of miles disappeared and I got home 9 miles later, muddy and sore after falling headlong into the mud. Even so, I had a good run and thoroughly enjoyed myself. if it wasn't for my back hurting, I would have carried on but I had done more than I intended, so wasn't disappointed at all.
Now the painkillers have worn off and I am stiff again but I'm sure that some excercises and stretching will help.
