I feel unbalanced. I’ve been out of sorts lately.

I’ve been getting these surges of anticipation even though I have no great prospects. It’s making me edgy.

Summer has come a little early this year and it’s full of promise.

I’m running a half marathon later this month; my first ever…!

I haven’t been training; in fact I’ve outright stopped running because I can’t go as far anymore.

The worse that could happen is that I don’t get a “finisher” t-shirt because I drop out halfway through the race.

I’m a little sad because this isn’t how I pictured my first half marathon – I figured I’d be well trained, healthy and enthused.

Instead I can’t seem to shake this defeatist mindset.
