On a more positive note, I've noticed a piece on the Guardian running blog that endorses my preferred method of training: the pre-breakfast run. Despite being horrible when reserves are completely depleted by a lot of exercise the previous day, it makes fully fuelled up runs feel like an absolute breeze...
