I’ve made a rash decision, and am about to make that rash more vivid and angry by discussing my resolution in public via this blog.
I’m abandoning my entirely satisfactory lifestyle of booze and indolence in favour of abstinence and austerity. I’ve sworn off the drink for 3 months, and have a training program to prepare me for the Weston 10k run on December 17th.
I would NEVER do anything as stupid as this of my own volition, however I have been challenged by Nicky. Unfortunately Nicky is super fit and hugely focused. I have neither of these qualities but am rediculously stubborn and competitive so am now signed up to slog miserable and sober through the last quarter of the year to an inevitable and embarrising defeat.
