Today is summed up quite frankly in one word REST. I woke this morning and had an intention to run, but had other things on my mind and a bit of headache and so rolled over, reset the alarm and listened to the body. It wanted to sleep in and that is just what I needed. A week out from the 50KM in Canberra and 8 weeks from Comrades, some friends have said that I should have forced myself out there. I have learned though that forcing oneself if you are not willing is not the best.
I have long ago taken on the advice of Fordyce and thrown the concept of weekly mileage out the window. As he says if at all in doubt then rather rest. Tomorrow the body will thank you.
