Day 9- Got back on the metaphorical horse
This summer I was so committed to running. I actually enjoy it. I found a training program and trained 4 days a week and ran my first half marathon on August 29. Unfortunately.... I started school. And I lost my motivation because something else always seemed more important. I'm a member of the running club at my university, but they only meet once a week which happens to be Wednesdays. I haven't been going as often because I can't keep up with them. To be honest, I probably never will be able to since they are so freaking fast, but I couldn't handle the mileage anymore. The scheduled run today was 3.75 miles. I knew I wouldn't make it, but I showed up and ran 1.6 before I turned around to head home. Hey, its better than nothing!
I had a pretty on plan day. Maybe I slipped in a couple extras that I shouldn't have, but I figure, if a spoonful of peanut butter here or there will keep me in the metaphorical wagon, I'm not going to sweat it. I made chili for dinner and stuffed it in a green pepper. Delicious. Highly recommend.
That's all for now folks. Stay strong.
