Work is taking a lesser priority this weekend as I am running in the Silverstone Half Marathon tomorrow, with sore knees.
This is in preparation for the London Marathon which I will be running in April in aid of RNIB. Much as I love running, the main challenge with it (note positive reframing) is that – and there is not way round this – running a long way takes a long time.
TIme and again I am worrying about time – or rather lack of it. I start to think that if I spent less time worrying about time i would have a bit more time.
There is no direct link between my running and my work – although I did recently consider that it is just yet another self imposed ‘displacement activity’. Either that or a strange kind of escapsim. It is true that it is, like driving, quite a good way to generate (or release) ideas.
Anyway – I hope to have lots of good ideas over tomorrow’s 13.1 miles – and that, with no sketchbook to hand, I can remember them long enough to write them down at the finish line.
