Overslept a little today but even so was up before 10am so bodyclock is almost back to the awesome levels it was before I went off the rails. Sleeping nice and uninterrupted and feeling fresh in the daytime!
Health & Fitness
Todays run was a great success. I made a big effort to pace myself better than on Monday, but I was actually really tired and wanting to stop before even finishing the first mile. Mentally though I toughed it out and kept pushing myself. Maybe the desire to stop actually made me go faster because when I did reach the finish I found I'd broken a record for the 2.65ml route. 00:23:53!
Really quite ecstatic because it was such a tough run but I showed that I can summon the mental-toughness to keep going even on days where I don't feel strong. Another pleasing aspect was that the weather was slightly unfavourable. It was (comparatively) warm, about 10C, the sun was shining and there was a lot of wind. Obviously that doesn't sound too bad but my running gear is all black and made for Winter so with the sun shining on me I was quite hot very early in the run, and with the wind blowing there was a few moments where I felt like I wasn't even moving.
The goal for Friday is to replicate todays effort. The run on Monday wasn't good, but today was amazing so I'll set myself a goal to finish under 24mins on Friday. If I can do that then I'll finally promote myself to a new, longer route. Exciting times!
Pre Sesh
Started off by clearing 15 note-hands. Checked the main file and there's only 19 hands left so we should have it cleared before the month is out!
Did a small amount of ICM FT-reviewing. Feel like I picked up a bit of useful info, but also feeling really lazy and daunted with the ICM work of late. This is something that needs seriously addressing as this is where a huge amount of money is going to be made!
Sesh
So got my first bink tonight. Left feeling quite bitter because took a 4th to finish and lost a flip to basically have 75% of the chips 3-handed after flopping a set v a gssd. Wasn't to be. Graph is bangon accurate!
Happy with the volume. One thing I am noticing is that I'm getting quite emotional and angry at the other players when I lose. I think I'm suffering from a lack of confidence due to a greatly increased difficulty in the games. It is imperative that I start doing some hard-graft in the ICM department and it needs to start tomorrow!

Today was a quite solid day but there's still lots of room for improvement. The plan for tomorrow is to work even harder by playing a similar sized sesh but with a lot more study beforehand.
Whilst I'm not completely there I do feel like I'm starting to find a good rhythm again so let's keep it up for the next two days and head into March on top-form!
Shelly.
