Hoping that 'Rest by Default' Pays Off...

I'm off to County Louth this weekend to visit the in-laws and will be travelling down the motorway on Sunday morning for my Craughwell race. I have not run at all this week... just didn't feel great, so from one day to the next I kept putting runs off in the hope that I'd feel better the following day... it leaves me now with the prospect of either going for a run tomorrow (I will be travelling today) or just leaving it until race day. Rónán reckons I might be better off after having a week's rest, and I'm willing to; A) Believe him and B) Blame him if things go pear-shaped on Sunday.
