No Motivation
My training for my first 5K is eight days away and I’ve got nothing.? Sure, I went out and bought new running shoes to make me feel all spiffy but like the bright pink sports tank and new running shorts they only spurned me on for a little bit.?
It’s like I’ve already hit the wall and yet I haven’t even begun. I have a week left of training before the big day and all I feel is fear.? Fear so strong it is causing me to sit out my runs.? Today my subconscious actually said, “You know if you didn’t run the 5K no one would really know…”? As if.? I would know and it makes me mad that my mind even wandered into this terrain.??? I know that when I complete a new run time I’m so proud. I feel like I can kick some serious booty and take on the world.? I’ve experienced enough runner’s high to know how good it can all be for my heart, mind and body.?
Yet, here I sit staring out the window, making up excuses on why I can’t run again today.? Maybe wrist bands will get me out the door?
