Leaden head

I was up & about, having done my short yoga routine and played my guitar. In fact, I was feeling pretty normal (well, as normal as it’s possible for me to feel :-)) and I thought I would squeeze in a quick run on the machine before breakfast.

There’s a difference running in the morning vs the afternoon, in terms of how warmed up the body is, but I had clearly forgotten this. The run was okay, but it left me feeling leaden legged and then leaden headed.

In fact, my brain has been working on treacle-speed ever since, evidenced by the fact that it’s almost midday and I’m not yet in work mode… in fact I’ve only just finished my first cup of (cold) tea, which is pretty-much unheard-of!

One upside however… my office has felt freezin’ most of the week, even wearing several layers and with the heater on under my desk. But right now there’s no heater on because I’m still feeling centrally heated from my run 🙂

One mile in ten and a half minutes is no news really, but all these little leaden-headed steps are building in a good direction… towards a run outside at some point.
