The Training Blog of PAMELAJEAN

Okay, so reality may have hit me in the head like a flying saucer. September is really only 4 months away…not even and I am embarking on 26.2 miles. Something that 3 years ago I would have NEVER EVER done ….or even thought about that is. I don’t like to think about it a lot because then I psych myself out and that’s not good. I’ve done several half marathons, so I know I can do that, but 26.2 miles is different. I have not done good with training this week. My left foot has been hurting and I don’t know exactly why. I’ve taken a few too many days off this week, BUT, I am back on it Sunday morning, NO EXCEPTIONS! Someone recently said “you get out of it what you put into it” and that is true. Running was overwhelming to me when I started doing this and at times it still is. I still have to do the run-walk method, but it is a great improvement of what I did when I started this so I always try to remember that fact in point. It is funny how things you think you cannot do you actually can do if you just try. So what the heck, I’m not in it to win it, only to finish and get that shiny new medal around my neck! Good luck to everyone else in their goals … because they are attainable, you just have to be willing to try!
