The rocky road ahead... just gets rockier

Getting there was never in doubt, is not in doubt, however my timetable has had to be modified somewhat, some might say stretched. Yes you've guessed, I've had a serious relaplse, I haven't ventured out to run for, oh, 3 weeks and it's coming up to Christmas! That is significant, Christmas that is, for this is a time of induldgence and excess. Now, I don't make the rules, they say rules are made to be broken but until I find out who "they" are I can't possibly that it seriously, can I?
