on holiday

i'm on a break from training at the moment. still doing some running but not as much so i'm making time for other things like playing tennis and hopefully love. nothing going on there at the minute but i have a good feeling that some thing positive could happen on that front in the near future. i am also using my time away from the sport to give serious consideration to what comes next in my sporting career. the way i feel at the minute i feel like giving up running on the track completely except for training on it and maybe taking up some other form of sport completely. other sports have been mentioned such as triathlon or duathlon have been mentioned. a certain person who shall remain nameless saidthe fact that i was (apparently) considering quitting the sport altogether was an acknowledgement that he was a better athlete than me...not so and if its all down to quitting before your time than he is the worst athlete in living memory (did precisely 6 hrs and 5 mins of running before saying his tendon hurt) every part of me hurts some days but i never let it stop me.

martin greenwood mentioned the possibility of me becoming a boxer but thats just a non starter. i have too much to give to risk getting my brain mashed. if you asked me right now though which seems like the most likely option i would put my hand on my heart and say that i honestly don't know. another option that i've given serious consideration to is rowing as i have done some very good times on the concept 2 indoor rowers so maybe that might be my path to fame and fortune as an olympic champion...that may be four years away but the hard work starts now...
