Here is what I need to do: try running on my leg.
Curling up in a ball isn’t going to make me feel better. Running probably isn’t either. But of the two the healthier choice mentally and physically is to go outside and see how my bum leg feels.
I am going very, very easy tonight. IT Band was still hurting at work. Have been wearing sneakers every day in the office. Feel very...

You indulge yourself too much.
You said it in your posts - you don’t feel like running so you walk. Well guess what… …I don’t feel like running either, but I still run. Look you already made the choice. The choice wasn’t “Do I want to run today or not?”, the choice was “Do I or do I not want to participate in this race?” You decided that you did want to do the race, so now the question is how well do you want...

Lunch with Cube Ninja, CFA
Cube finally finished up his paperwork and now officially holds the title of CFA. But more importantly I informed Cube that starting next week project smack soda out of my hands will be extended to candy bars.
“What? How many candy bars are you eating?” he asked me.
Maybe one or two… …a day.
People of the Internet I got a stern talking to. And Cube is willing to...

Claire posted something earlier that was so on point with something I had been thinking about in my train ride home.
It’s no secret I struggle with being sad or mad at myself for all my shortcomings - the thing is, for me, being in this place is usually the point where I make some amazing change. If it weren’t for the desire to not be where I am right now, who I am right now - then...

So I am meeting with my boss
I am sitting by her desk reviewing some stuff I had gotten ready for her when one of the EAs helping our team comes in. My boss is about to fly to the mothership for meetings and this woman is helping her out while our EA is out.
Boss: so were you able to get the flight changed
Girl: No, because you preboarded we want to wait until you are in the air to do it.
Boss, after reviewing...

So tired.
And my hip still hurts.
Yes definitely did some running.
And walking.
Because of the hip I cancelled WIL and will take today as a rest day. The incremental benefit from one spin class is outweighed by the potential to create a massive problem in my hip. Especially with 3 major races (Big Sur, NYC Tri, Chicago) I will be doing come hell or high polluted sewage water.
Instead I will...

To those that like to learn the hard way
Absolutely earnestly believe that after the hunger situation on last week’s run ensuring you get good fueling before today’s run MUST happen.
Come up with brilliant idea of cooking burn disks (GF pancakes). Realize they have milk and eggs in them but deem the ratio safe for your tummy.
Eat about 5 burn disks. Wait about 20 minutes and realize that burn disks were not just an...
How 2 Run Fast: Should You Eat Like a Diabetic? →
Thanks for this post. I have a long history of diabetes in my family and if you meet me you’ll know why I am scared of GUs and the like. 90% of my fat is belly fat and I feel like I am racing against a ticking timebomb. I’ll look into this product. Thanks!! how2runfast:

Shhhhhhhhhhh, shhhhhhhhhhh, shhhhhhhhhhh brain
You don’t need to keep trying to convince me I can’t do it. All you will succeed in doing is making me walk 15 miles.
I can do it. I can do it. I can do it. So shut up self doubt.

OK - I can do this. I CAN DO IT
I have 13.1 on the schedule for tomorrow. I have a 15 mile route mapped out (for warm up and cool down) and it is all new territory - 90% of this run I have never seen a single step of.
I shouldn’t be afraid. (I am. I am totally shitting bricks and kind of want to cry - I don’t know why.)
I have done longer distances before. (I have. Successfully and not successfully - they have been...
POG > POR
Pain of Gluttony > Pain of Regret
Co-worker had this written on her hand. I kind of have to agree. Sitting with a belly that feels like lead is worse than trying to figure out how to satiate a craving.
