Not running again.......

It feels like I have not run in months.

Its been a week and a half, I have injured my back. I AM GOING INSANE and I need to run.

I feel like I am about to explode, my thoughts seem like they are on the other side of a sheet of baking paper, I can see them, collect them but they are clouded and distorted.

I feel tense, stressed and angry at nothing.

All because I haven't run in a week and a half.

And that's because I hurt my back picking up my little girl to put her on a swing and wham my back was stuffed.


I am lucky that my wife was so understanding and supportive as its put a huge amount of pressure on her, we were on our way back from camping when it happened so she had to unpack and sort out the kids etc why I lay in pain.




Ice, pain killers, anti infamatorys and rest. Its starting to come good, and I feel like I can run but I just dont know what the fall out will be if I do.


I know I need to run if I don't I will have a mental breakdown, but if I do my back might revert to a state of pain.


I think a small run after the kids are in bed tonight may be on the cards.....it might be one of the only cards I have to play of I don't play it, I feel like I will be out of the game/
