...then went back to the hotel for the longest Easter Dinner in history
Before I could do this workout today, I had to rethink the way I thought about it. When I first saw,
Today we took it easy. It was really awesome to run in a group again. Astrid and I are used to either training together, alone, or with our Thuner-Trio when Livia comes to Thun
I guess I am trying to make SUFFERING a habit of mine. Sounds pretty hardcore, doesn
I am working, working, working and I have to keep on believing in myself, no matter how many times I get knocked down on my butt. I am fully back in the swing of things now and I am doing everything I can, controlling all the variables I can to give myself the best shot at achieving what it is I want to achieve. In this sport, those who can hang on the longest end up being successful because many give up or let go. I am not one to let go!
The workout went pretty well this morning, considering I was out of commission for so long.
I am looking forward to actually having a couple solid, CONSISTENT races.
Speaking of healthy...I went to the docotor today and got some more meds...Man, it\'s been 2 weeks and I am still coughing stuff up, but as far as my strength goes, I feel fine.
I am still in my sweaty workout clothes, yes, I actually sweated running those butt-slow times....but anyway, I am sitting in my sweaty workout clothes just warring with myself between positive and negative...
First real workout after my cold...Yeah, didn\'t go too well. I was wheezing and couldn\'t breath even though I had just split the same times I ran in the 400s today as I ran the 1000s last week.
It was my first day back healthy so we took it easy in the morning and then did a shake out workout in the afternoon to wake my legs up for tomorrow\'s real workout.
There are some people who tune everything out when they race, but when I hear my coach yell something at me in a race, I always respond. In high school, Skinny used to yell \"arms, head!\" When he said that, I knew exactly what he meant...
My workout went pretty well today. Not necesssarily because of the times I ran, but because of my mentality. It was really a struggle to get through today because of yesterday\'s workout, but I kept my head on straight.
As we passed the hotel bar, we saw that tonight was \"Karaoke\" night. We saw that there were many older people sitting there, that we wanted to sing for them.
l distance runner. One cannot put into words why she isn\'t, but hopefully you all will get to know her a little better over the next two weeks and discover why she isn\'t...
I am not sure how many more times I have to remind myself to be patient, but I do it often.
The needles weren\'t so bad, it was once they were in my muscle when it KILLED.
After putting up a fight of whether or not I really had to do it, he decided he would try pumping iron into my right arm..as soon as the needle went in, I started crying like a little girl!
Then these Euros like putting huge logs in the middle of the course.
