Sinking Into Oblivion

My webhoster just sent me the bill for renewal of web space and URL. That reminds me that I haven’t running-blogged anything since completing the London Marathon. What a waste of web space rental.

Well, I have a full year now to decide whether I actually want to post stuff or to let my little running adventures sink into oblivion. Tough choice. I like writing and I like writing about running, but I hate pressure and don’t perform very well when sensing it. Having a blog that needs constant feeding in order to be somewhat justified IS pressure. Any ideas how to over come it?

It is a bit of a shame, because this blog knows nothing about the awesome Lakeland Trails Marathon three weeks ago, an adventure compared best to be thrown right into a Lord of the Rings movie setting and then run your way out of it. It was amazing.

Further while I am trying to reach a physical state where my legs and feet don’t burn like hell every morning I get up, the next Marathon is already in line: Frankfurt, end of October. Yikes. Maybe I should start once again sharing my pain with the part of the world who wants to know about it. Is shared pain not half the pain? We shall see.

      Great! I am running it with a friend. Do you know what time your brother in law is aiming for? Maybe we can meet up at the finish line :)) I will look out for you!

    My advice would be to sign up, use it, but only communicate when you feel like it. That’s the advice I would give to journal writing too. Then there’s no pressure. It’s really interesting reading what you are up to. I’m running my first 5K tomorrow and I think my knees are better.

    Happy running/writing!

    It already got it extended, Cathy. That’s why I still got a year to decide what to do. Costs me about Β£80 per year… Really not sure if it’s worth it. This whole “feeling like it” works with journal writing and but not with blogging somehow. Have to figure it out I guess, but nice to hear positive feedback, thank you πŸ™‚ Hope your run got all well! Happy running to you too!!
