Confession time... I was suppose to run 5 miles yesterday, and well... I didn't. This is my first Thursday without class since finals and ok, to be completely honest, going out weighed heavier on my pleasure seeking scale than running. Of course with the lie to myself... that I still run Saturday (which I will) and that next week we get right back on the training schedule (which I hope). Funny enough - training related - last night after my NY strip steak, potato cake & asparagus I headed back to "location #1" and ordered rocket tots to which point the "Boston Qualifier" (name has been changed to protect the fast) said... be careful, that's how people get big. HAHA! How true! So weight. Yes, we all want to look awesome in our clothes but additionally...as a runner.... the more you weigh, the more you have to propel forward. The more you're adding to the pounding of your knees, feet... spandex. Ugh, I like living in reality, but sometimes I hate swallowing it.
Motivational quote time... Charles Swab said.... A man can succeed at almost anything for which he has unlimited enthusiasm. Hmmm...dictionary.com says enthusiasm is absorbing or controlling possession of the mind by any interest or pursuit. Doesn't action need to be involved? We'll modify...
A man can succeed at almost anything for which he has unlimited enthusiasm and drive. Hm, just found my steering wheel.
