It is official. A couple of months ago I signed up for my first race. My goal is not to beat other people...my goal is to finish without dying. I will be doing the 10k. Right now my goal time is 1:20. Which I think is doable. I have never ran a race. I hate running outside. There are hills outside and I have to keep my legs going. When I'm on the treadmill I usually run at an incline of 1 or 1.5 and IT keeps my legs going. If I don't keep going I'm going to fall off. Can't we just transfer that to outside...
Confession. I have been a total slacker with my workouts. I have been getting my runs in on Mon, Tues, and Wednesday but then doing absolutely nothing Thurs, Fri, Sat, and Sun! Eek! That's bad, very bad. 81 days until the race...but whose counting. I met with my trainer the other day. She set up a new strength plan for me. I was getting so bored of the old one. I am pretty sure I whined the whole session. It is going to kick my butt. Not even exaggerating. Also, she is making me do a lot of weird things. I already look like crap when I'm exercising but now you want me to slam a ball down that makes lots of noise and then bear crawl across the gym?! Eye rolls were needed I swear...Note to trainer: I am more apt to do everything you want me to if I don't look like a complete retard doing it.
I need to get my butt in gear and my mind back in the game. I have been using homework as an excuse. Yeah, I have a lot of homework but I could manage my time better. It pains me to say that. I'm probably not accomplishing much anyway in the two hours I could be working out. Seriously, the internet is the devil and provides all sorts of distractions. So, wish me luck and please tell me to get my butt in gear...I respond well to mean comments and guilt!
XOXO,
NMO
