Motiva...what?

Since finishing the race, I've been having a really hard time getting back into my running. I know it's totally mental, I know. But it doesn't help. I was jogging along at my typical 10-min mile pace today, and it was the most beautiful evening in the Fens, and there was really no reason to feel like I couldn't go on. I was just so uninspired.
Then it hit me.
Run faster.
So I ran faster.
And it felt really, really good.
The downside is, I realized that my lack of motivation was only partly mental and also partly something wrong with my lower legs, so I had to stop eventually anyway.

I need some big fluffy cloud shoes to run in.
