Ran Ran/Walked 10 on TM today--I am so pissed at myself. It was COLD here in the NE today----25 degrees with a windchill of 17-35 mph. I can try to blame my anger over this awful run on Mother Nature, but it is my own fault. I should have sucked it up--there are only 3 weeks left before the race and I do NOT feel prepared. Isn't the whole idea of training and re-reunning a race that you actually improve. Well, I do not feel like I have improved.
Once I got my mind mentally wrapped around doing 10 on the TM, I jumped in with a positive attitude. I loaded up "Eat, Pray, Love" on Netflix, placed my water and iPod next to me, and covered up the display with a dish towel--I was all set.
Not even 40 minutes into the run--I felt like I "HAD" to walk---I could not run 10 on the TM. I am not a happy camper right now.
Next Saturday we have a 13.1 race training run planned. I think Con is going to have to miss Sat morning soccer practice so we can actually do the run--I think I am going to have to switch some runs around this week, just to give me back some confidence.
