I did actually weigh myself yesterday, 81.2kg (12stone 11pounds or 179 pounds), so a little down on a few months back. I am not sure why I feel the need to comment on it, as it is just a number.

But I feel that since I don’t run as much that I have got a lot … well … heavier and I don’t really like it. I have upped my other exercise and tried to be very cautious in what I eat and drink.

Maybe I see gaining weight as a middle-aged thing and I try to ignore that I am not a young person anymore. Not sure.

My lightest when I ran my fastest times was 61kg but for much of the last decade I have been 75kg or thereabouts, mainly less, until the last 4-5 years when it has crept up at the same time as my running has decreased….
