…unlike my normal MO, I can’t prove it, ‘cos my GPS went wacky and then my running app crashed when I got home, before I could save the data.<\/p>\n

I am somewhat miffed that having mentally prepared for getting up at 0-My-Goodness-600h, and then actually done it, got out of the house in a timely fashion and made myself run 3.42 miles i do not have the data, not really becuase I want to __prove__ it to anyone (let’s be honest 12.333 minutes\/mile is nothing to crow about), but because having the data has been one of the mainstays of my being able to motivate myself.  What can I say, I’m a geek.  I like data, numbers, graphs, trends and the such like.  I get excited when I can see that over time the trend is that I run faster and further, and missing a data point like today’s run (in which I clawed back a whole minute from last week’s effort) is just a bit, well, “meh!”.<\/p>\n

Oh well, I guess I’ll just have to try again tomorrow – I am planning to reboot my iPhone just before I go out in the hope of having as much memory available as possible, seeing as the old 3G I have is now at the blunt back-edge of the iPhone tech-tree and even if “turn it off and turn it on again” shouldn’t work with something made my Apple, the simple truth is that it does \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Roll on April and my chance to bully an iPhone 4 out of O2, or make my own destiny if they refuse to play ball!<\/p>\n

Enjoy your Wednesday \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
