Running is hard

So I've started running again, its been about a week now and got up to 2 miles last night (with a few stops in between!) Not feeling too bad this morning but still a long way to go until I can start looking at even 5km events I think.


I read something the other day on Runners World about whether its good to listen to music as you run or not. I'm still undecided, in one hand its nice to listen to a few tracks as you run along but then you realise that your actually making alot of weird grunting noises that you weren't previously aware of!


I listened to tracks from 2 albums that are a world apart yesterday, I started off with Slipknot and finished with Les Miserables. I think I should have gone the other way around because if your starting with the heavy music you've got nowhere to go but slower!


I think I'm slowly starting to figure out this blogging thing. I've found a few blogs that interest me so will add a few to my following page if anyones interested. Not that anyone would be because nobodies read this yet, at some point I'll figure out the next bit which is getting people to read the tedious stuff I put on here.


Finally why is it footballers (soccer) get all the attention for just kicking a ball about once or twice a week. I say this because I caught the Hyde Park Triathalon on TV the other day and that is one hard sport. I don't think I would have made it through the swimming stage right now and then you look at the likes of the Brownlee brothers and it made me think that we have a hugh amount of sporting talent in the UK that we've never even heard of.


I thin everyone needs to make the effort to support the guys and girls that put so much effort into their passion for not alot of money. How about you don't buy next weeks ticket for the footie, or give the weekends game on the TV a miss just this once and go and catch a random sport you've not seen before. You might be suprised.


Until next time.
