I should not complain so much because it really was not that bad. After the first 4 hours things got better.Once I downed my coffee at home with my Pumpkin Spice Creamer and then my Venti Misto on the way to work, my life turned around quickly...
Track did start my day out, and anyone that knows me knows that track is my least favorite part of running.
Sometimes I think about why I dislike track so much...- fast running that is not comfortable.
Then I think about how much I don't like tempo runs... and it is actually the same thing - fast running that is not comfortable.
then I think about how much I don't like the 5k.... and again it is the same thing - fast running that is not comfortable.
Then I think about my loves...Tuesday and Thursdays and my loooooong, looooong runs... oh and my Friday runs and my Sunday runs :) this just makes me happy. My two a days make me a happy runner too!
Knowing that tomorrow is Thursday puts a peaceful smile on my face and makes me want to go to bed now so I can wake up and RUN.
So after writing this, it brings me to my next thought... if I don't like running fast why in the heck do I race?!?! What is the point??? I mean its not like it is FREE!
How did I not know about your blog until now. I am loving it! Girl you are SPEEDY. I hate track work-outs too, I get so bored and I suck at math so I always screw up! You got the 7:00 pace for your next 1/2 in the bag!
