Life is catching up on me...

Right, the last post was a good while ago...actually 2 months to the day...
Things have been a bit manic and life has been catching up on me.

I have been trying so hard to keep active, and I succeeded until my other half hurt his back, and for some reason my motivation just went out the window. Part of it could also have to do with the preparation for a badminton competition less than a couple of weeks ago. While running doesn't do any harm to me anymore since I changed to minimalist shoes, badminton still seems to permanently do damage to my knee. I should probably know better at this stage and think about retirement, but I just love the sport too much. Anyhow, so I was training for that, my knee got worse from session to session, which also then affected my running...which then made me damage some ligaments in the opposite foot because I must have unconsciously put a lot more weight on that leg to protect my banjaxed knee...a vicious circle...so now I'm out of action for a while, trying to rest. At the same time I'm getting restless and really want to get out and run again...
