A bit of a wobble

My motivation took a bit of a downturn this week.

I won't bore you with my musings on the psychology of motivation except to say that, for me, staying motivated to train long-term depends (too much?) on keeping to a structured training programme. This week I lost a couple of run slots because it was too busy at work to get out at lunchtime, and the frustration from this combined with the effects of a couple of short nights and made me start to think "what's the point?"

Feeble, I know.

Anyway I'm feeling more upbeat today after a couple of good nights sleep and after a 9 mile run yesterday. I'm pretty confident my wobble was only temporary. And I'm running the Bath Half Marathon next weekend: that should buck me up...

Here are some photos of Hackney street art I passed on my circuit yesterday.
