Running on Empty
Or "Not Running" as was the case this morning. Unseasonably warm - 15°C at 7am. I headed off down Victoria Rd with the intention of looping around at Killara, but on the way up the hill to Chandler Rd I discovered the tank was empty. I had zero energy. My heartrate was still low - in the 140s - but I just couldn't keep going. I turned down Chandler Rd and cut the loop short, with several walking breaks on the way home.
No idea why it wasn't happening this morning. Perhaps the heat, perhaps the light meal last night (2 slices of fruit bread and a handfull of dried fruit - I had a big lunch though), who knows. One of those days...

No bakery tray this morning - apparently it all ended on 31 August. They couldn't even make it last until the end of the week. Ah well, I reckon I did pretty well staying off the sugar for the last four days.

Just when I was really starting to enjoy the bakery tray...
