On Tuesday I had a terrible day at work. I was just drowing all day long. I spent the day feeling a giant fuzz in my brain, feeling like a failure, a mess. Thank goodness in the evening I had 6.5km on my program to complete. I have NEVER run that far in my life. As I started approaching 5km’s I realised I was actually going to make it. Once I hit the 5km mark, the sensation was just amazing. I wanted to scream out loud. 6.5km is nothing for a lot of people but the realisation that I could do it, made me feel so powerful and like I could actually complete the marathon eventually if every week I hit new barriers like this.
Today I ran 5km. I started feeling lazy these past two days I took off. (Im supposed to run only 4 days a week) and it was a tough run (even for just 5km) because my nutrition has been bad. I really didn’t feel like going but afterwards I felt so great I still did ab exercises, stairmaster for ten minutes and swam for about 20. Feeling good!
Tomorrow (or Sunday, depending on how stiff I am) I have a good 8km run to complete. I am pretty sure I will have to walk some even if just 2 minutes somewhere but I’m feeling like i can do it. I sure am nervous though!
My inspiration for the week
