Training Post 5 - Two months to go

This is a cartoon I drew in Paint a few weeks ago, to properly communicate my dismay at my post-holiday lack of fitness:


Now it's two weeks later, and things aren't so dire. Today I ran for over 30 minutes, changing my route slightly from my normal one, and managing nearly 4 miles (3.72 miles, to be exact). I think if I had allowed myself a short break, say a few minutes of walking, then I might have been able to go further. But for now, I'm pretty happy with how far I can run. I just don't want to accept that, in two months time, I will have to run an extra 9 miles!
