Being back in the swing of life is exhausting! Yesterday, I was a little busy getting some things accomplished before my softball game (that got rained out. we're three for three on rain outs... Go us!), but I was still able to get a 4 miler in. Today, all I had planned was homework, job searching, and my run, but it was rough! (tomorrow is another run and class.) It's been tough to manage my time since I got back from California. It doesn't help that my body had just gotten used to west coast time when it was time to come back to Florida.
Today was a 9 mile run. It was hot. Miserably so. I really didn't feel like being out there the entire time that I was there. It was a little awful. I wanted to quit the entire time. There's something inside of me that doesn't give up, though. I continued to push forward throughout the entire run and ended up with a just under 15 minute mile pace. Normally, I'd be disappointed, but today, I just wasn't interested in running, so it was okay.
Sometimes, what counts the most is getting out there and doing it. Today was one of those days. Tomorrow may be better... I hope.
Goal: 1000 miles/366 days
So far: 557.04 miles/249 days
To go: 442.96 miles/117 days
This is a time where it's really good you are following a plan or I'd say you probably would be miles behind in your goal. Keep up the good work!
