==February 2012==
February has seen me building back after my brief bout of overtraining[[Overtraining Syndrome]]. I've returned to running four days per week, which is helped enormously. My mood state has improved dramatically, and a number of friends have commented on the change. My experiment with running more frequently has given me some useful insight into the effects of [[Training Monotony]] and overtraining[[Overtraining Syndrome]], as well as understanding how my body reacts to different training loads and regimes.

==January 2012==
At the beginning of January I started to suffer from overtraining[[Overtraining Syndrome]]. This has built up over time and as a result I had to reduce my training dramatically. I also caught a serious cold for the first time in a while, which further reduced my training load. I'm going to return to my previous pattern of running four days/week, bringing to an end my experiment with more frequent running. Overall I've found the more frequent running had some advantages, but overall it is less effective and more time consuming.
