No more running

I have officially given up on running. My knees just cannot handle it. I have finally resigned myself, in great pain, to that fact. A great pity, since I have come to rather enjoy my short runs.

It all started in a drunken conversation. I then committed myself to training for a half marathon; the Knysna Forest half marathon, in fact. That race is just over a month away, and after skipping runs due to a cold, I decided to try do a slow 1h30 run this morning. I managed about 25minutes of that. The next 20 minutes was spent hobbling back home to throw in the towel.

I am glad that I haven’t paid for accommodation yet in Knysna. I will cancel the booking today.

Bleak.
