Yesterday, another hot day, gave me quite the challenge! I went out around 12:30 and set my mind to do 4 miles. I had my water and God sent a nice breeze. Thank you, Jesus. But still, I got to a point in my run and I just wanted to stop, get in the shade and cool off. I forced myself not to quit. I kept telling myself, "just press through it!" And I did! What a happy contented feeling!
Today is an off day, at least in the physical. Mentally and emotionally I have been fired up after getting on the endurance50.com website. At the moment I feel inspired to do a 1/2 marathon in the Lewis & Clark race on September 17. I'm probably just blowing some hot air, but the inspiration and motivation that has come over me after being on that website is fun anyways! I don't really know if I'll do this. I have yet to even decide about the triathlon in August. It's all WORK - HARD, HOT, TIME-CONSUMING and GRUELING. Is this really what I want? It's a MENTAL MOMENTOUS DECISION that once made, your in. Until then, your just a sideliner, sitting on the bench, having grandiose thoughts ABOUT being a winner. So, I'm just kind of sitting here on these thoughts. Hmm..., what is it that will get me up and really going?
