Ok so I've already admitted to being a diet junky but I have another confession!
I seem to love buying magazines (and wasting a lot of money too!) yet never seem to read them all!
I have a large pile forming! Then I save them to look back on X or Y article only to never open them again!
I suppose running is like an addition to - Benz is addicted to marathons though which may or may not be such a good thing!
Running is addictive though - you get a high from running even if it's been a rubbish run you almost always feel better having been out!
There always seems to be the "must I?" moment before you drag your butt out of the door ... the obligitory 20 mins of hell at the start of the run ... the awful runs when nothing goes right and then there are "those runs" when everything is heavenly! OK so these are few and far between but they do happen and when they do you realise why you love running!
Anyway my latest magazine purchase is "Health and Fitness" as it has a marathon section in it ... some of the points seemed identical to those seen in this months Runners World magazine too! But it helps me to motivate myself - I think!
Still haven't managed any more night time runs though! MUST get my butt out of the door at 8PM alone, after tea, regardless!
How long until FLM?? 130 Days - Oh help!

And another addiction we share.
Every time I go on the train I buy a mag, quick flick through - leave to read later and they sit in a pile by my bed.
And recipes - loads of them to cut out and not get round to trying!
Have not looked at Health and Fitness - will look out for it next week!
eek - 130 days - and I don't even know if I'm in yet!
Re running: before tea - as soon as you get home is an excellent idea. Only snag is if I do that I won't get to see Oliver as he goes to bed at 7.30. I get home at 6.05-6.15 so by the time I get dressed would be out of the door by 6.30 max. Suppose I could do just 30-45 mins... Oliver would have to have tea either alone or with daddy (if alone daddy would have to have a late tea with me (we normally eat at 6.30))
Broken link alert on this post! Too many http's.
You need a good couple of hours to digest a full meal before running I would have thought? Everyone says snacking is the way to go!
Dan.
I agree with the 2hrs min thing - which means getting out on the road very late which means I am less likely to get out!
(In our house is when a minibeanz does the washing up with whichever grownupbeanz didn't get the tea!!)
hubby will just have to have tea late or eat with oliver!
Might make me eat less too - mind you I've been mega stressed today (calm now) and eating for England! Strange when really busy I don't eat, when stressing I pig out
but calm now - club run tonight!
