In about an hr I will be meeting up with my friend Theresa. What will we be doing??? Well she will be smiling, enjoying the outdoors, and leaving me in the dust! Running. We are running. No, she will be running...I will be suffering, embarrassed, crying and trying my hardest! Evenutally I am wanting to run a 5k. I said eventually. The hard thing is no one wants to train with me or even set a goal. I would ask my friend Alisha but she is in South Korea for a year. She could run a race in her sleep sitting in a chair.... Easy peasy baby. So thank you Theresa for letting me run way way way behind you!
Things I am nervous about
-My asthma will flare
- Shin splits
-My brain telling me I am too weak
-Someone will see me and laugh
-Not running very far or long
-Failing
-Letting this list make me nervous :)
Time to go change and lace up my shoes!!!
"No matter how slow you go, you are still lapping everyone on the couch."
UPDATE
So I met Theresa at a park close by where she lives. Today was a cloudy day, so that made me more excited about running. On my driving there it starts to sprinkle...which made me even more happier!!! What else could make running more appealing than rain?!?! No sarcasm here what so ever. No really. My heart smiled because of the rain :) We warm up by walking then the next lap we would run and switch off again. That making my total 1.5 miles running and 2.25 walking!!! That may not sound much to you, but for me it sounds awesome lol.
I can scratch my list from earlier because:
-My asthma did not flare
-No shin splits but the hinges of my knee are bothering me :(
-My brain did not tell me I was to weak...it actually said "You can do this!"
-No one really saw me and no one laughed....except for us because of our conversation
-As far as not running very far or long...I did a lot more than I thought I would
-I did not fail because I actually did it!
-This list makes me proud not nervous :)
