...and NINE to go! Yikes!
Last week the thought of 9 more weeks might have been enough to bring me to tears. Running was HARD again. Things hurt. I lost my mo-jo. I just wasn't into it....at all. Totally regretted signing up for the half, totally regretted our training plan, kinda regretted I ever started running.
Then I had a good run. Yup, that is all it takes... I quit trying to get the fastest time I could and just started running. And it felt good. Better than good. It re-invigorated me. I am back to enjoying running. I am actually LOOKING FORWARD TO our longer weekend runs! 11k next Saturday! Whoo Hoooo! Bring it on!
Let's hope the next 9 weeks of training keep pumping me up and the lost mo-jo days are behind me. Temporarily at least. They'll be back. Post-race let-down and all that. In December. Shouldn't be too hard to re-find my desire to run in December right? Snow, ice, dark, weeks and months of freezing temperatures ahead. Oh well....TODAY I had a good run....so, bring it!
