I gave myself a two-week ultimatum to get settled with this new work-school setup, and then get back to regular training.
(Not only did my running slack off, but many things as well, ahem, like stuffing this personal sports diary. What was there to write about anyway, except for tales on how to rush to my evening classes straight from work, and how to fake a smile to dampen my profs’ presumed irritation over my 30-minute tardiness. Man it’s no less one kind of sports activity I tell you.)
I haven’t been completely run-less anyway. I managed to squeeze in some weekend long runs and.. uhm, that’s about it I think. Okay, okay, pathetic Cathletic. (And they even rhyme, geesh.)
Last Friday (my last run to date, yikes!), I was able to finish 3 laps of the Acad oval and I felt my calves react the day after. Hmm, I missed the feeling, hahaha. Sunday came and I had planned of joining the Takbo guys for a group LSD (a.k.a. bandit run at the PTAA race) and I overslept. Hmm, I missed the run and I missed the people.
So have I adjusted yet to this new work-school setup? Heck no, and only heaven knows if I ever will - but there’s ONLY one thing I’m sure of:
The Two-Week Ultimatum Has Expired.
And this entitles me to lace up my shoes and hit the road more often, again.
Instead of availing the KOM run adventure offer, I buried my face on our BA201 problem sets. Now I’m eyeing on the Botak 100K on the 28th, and yes this one shall be for real. A 10-miler, yum yum.
