Comments: I'm still gripped with a massive lack of motivation to run. I skipped another workout today. The countdown, however, is on. I have a 30k trail race in February, and I want to do well. When I ran it in 2004, I placed fourth overall. This year I want to crack the top three. I need to start training or I'll be lucky to finish it at all.

I decided to quit Nanowrimo today. I'm too far behind to catch up without putting in a Herculean effort. I'm going to keep writing, but at a pace I can manage: 500 to 1000 words per day. It may take me six months to write a 100,000 word manuscript, but at least I won't hate it when I'm done (or so my theory goes).

 
Sometimes I feel like I'm breathing underwater.
