Beating myself up

I've been so good about running, but it seems when I have business trips, vacations or a cold, I just drop it. I want to focus on getting my life done.

So, I didn't really run for two weeks. I know. Bad me, but I gotta have a life. This Sunday, was the 9 mile run. Our last long one. I was not looking forward to it. The longest I had run before this was 6. I think I completely stressed myself out, and I couldn't get to sleep Saturday night. I think I maybe got 3 hours.

The run this morning starts out ok. I'm doing fine, but by mile 4 I'm about to fall apart. Seriously. I get to mile 5 and just stop. I'm not going to make it back. The humidity was just way way way too much.

So, I have a 9 mile rac ein two weeks. I'm not sure I'm going to make it, but after thinking all day today, I'm going to do it. I'm gonna try. I'm so not looking forward to this.

Please don't beat yourself up, Victoria. Just do the best you can. Some of us can't even run one mile (although I can certainly walk that much and more)! Remember, it's July, and summer is not your favorite season!

Give it a shot. You've got nothing to lose.
