| A walk from Barnes Bridge to Hammersmith at 1am |
Day 269
An awful lot of night walking, night, thanks to missed trains and a book club that takes place in Barnes. It cleared the drink from m system, but I did not get into my beduntil 3am, then had to rise from it three hours later for work.
So here I am, having missed the last train, waiting for a night bus to take me into town after convivial evening. Walking along the placid river Thames in the stilly watches of the night, looking at the huge houses of Barnes riverside and wondering what it would be like to live there was therapeutic, but sleep deprivation is the very worst thing that can happen in training, because every part of you is affected. Most worryingly for the hormonal woman, the metabolic system sustains the biggest hit, but your judgement, your mood, your muscles, your appetite and your perception of the world around you, it all suffers when you deny yourself sleep.
