I've Got The Body That My Behaviour Deserves

SOMETIMES, IN LIFE, you need to embrace new ideas. It’s amazing how locked in I can get with my running.

- Paul Tonkinson

I’ve found my routes, and usually I do them at around the same speed. They say madness is doing the same thing again and again while expecting different results. Therefore, I’m nutty as a fruitcake.

This is a roundabout way of saying I’ve started stretching properly before and after my runs, and I’ve done a gym session. For years I prided myself on not stretching. I ran, I sprinted, I surged; with no ill consequences. I ran slowly at the start and quicker at the end; and then I stopped dead, had a bath and sallied forth into the day without consequences.
