And I (try to) love running!

JUST GET OUT THERE AND RUN

Category Running
I haven't run in a week. And I don't feel like running today. But I know that I should. I know I'll feel great when I'm done. But right now I feel like a three-year-old, stomping and kicking and screaming, "I don't wanna!!!".

Suck it up. JUST GET OUT THERE AND RUN.

That's what someone needs to tell me.

The sad thing is that I regularly go through this, and yet still I let it get to me. I don't feel like running, and one day I give in to that feeling. Then the next day I feel bad about not running the day before and I don't go running again just because I'm mad at myself. That makes sense, right? The more days slip in between runs, the easier it gets to skip the run. I'm not sure if it's post race blues, or just life. Wait a second. Who cares?! JUST GET OUT THERE AND RUN.

Oh, right.

You've heard it here first. I *am* running today. I *will* feel better when I'm done. Wasn't I just dreaming about a MARATHON last week? And now I'm finding it hard to gather the energy to run three miles. Sheesh. JUST GET OUT THERE AND RUN.

Please make a comment to check and see if I went for a run. Public humiliation may be all that gets me out there today!
