Doing stupid things

I did a couple of really stupid things today. One was just dumb and the other is, by some peoples standards, certifiable crazy.
Number 1 was to running in the country over a route I have never run before via some never explored right of ways. For my sins I got lost, went round a small collection of houses twice not realising that it was a circular road, tripped up over a tree route, got scratched from the bushes and have a leg that is still tingling from all the stinging nettles my bare legs came into contact with. Oh and to cap it all in the last 15 yards I slipped off the pavement and twisted my ankle - the other ankle. Fortunately it was only a slight twist and its OK now.
Number 2 - The crazy thing. I finally entered the Abingdon Marathon on the 16th October. This could be a big mistake, having looked back at my running log I haven't run properly since March, I've put on nearly 7lb in weight, am totally lacking in motivation and generally feel like something unpleasant you step in. Hopefully this will all change, I need to focus on this run, no mopping around feeling sorry for myself and stuffing my face. I have a marathon to train for!!
