OK.. .. after a much needed two hour nap, some family time.. and feeling like i am back to normal :)
I have these thoughts:
so i know throughout this journey i will have moments of self doubt. Moments when i think i have officially gone off the deep end :) and Moments when quitting would be much easier than moving forward. I think i should be use to this .. after two years of talking myself into and out of working or not working out.. I have a strong background (i hope) in over coming my negative self talk :) ..
I .. by no means think this Marathon training and race will be in any form a breeze or easy. I understand it will probably be the most difficult thing i have ever tried to do.
I am just soooo blessed and so thankful that i have sweet friends like you all to go on this journey with. Thanks for your encouragement!
so.. now what?
well.. I have taken another look at the mararthon in San Antonio and feel more at easy as it states something about walking the full marathon.. sooooo.. i know now the pressure is off to feel like i must finish under a certain time. I also know the longer i get in my training I will
have a much better idea of my pace and how long it will actually take me to complete. I would love to try and finish in under 6 hours.. but that could be asking a bit much :)
I am also looking into running this marathon as a fundraiser... but havent quite figured out how to go about it. .. I figured if i am going to run this far.. it might as well go to a good cause :) .. I am still looking into it though.. and will let you know when i get something worked out. :)
Tomorrow morning is a 45 min run.. i am looking forward to it.. esp cause i got ANOTHER new running skirt! just like my last one but this one is royal blue!
and yet another triumphant day with kicking my soda habit.. i picked up the sodas back up for the week of art camp :) LOL .. and it got me through :) (yes.. i felt the need some moments to self medicate :) LOL..... SOOOO today.. was NO SODAS (again) .. .. This week i am starting out soda free again.. and sure cant wait to sleep through the night !
I also wanted to mention that i am sooooo very happy that Daniel.. Suzettes son is healing and doing much much better. If you havent checked out her blog lately .. scoot on over and shoot her a word of encouragement.. !
cyber (((((((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))) to Daniel !!!!!
