Well, I ran the "Race your Ice Off" 5K run today. I am proud to say that I 'ran' the whole race - although if you were a fast walker, you probably would have passed me at times. They said the course was relatively flat. Relative to what? I don't remember running anything that wasn't going down or going up. It was by sheer will power that I finished the race. I didn't have anything left. But I did it. I just kept telling myself that, "If I stop and walk, I am going to be forever disappointed with myself; I can do this." It was actually warm for this time of year, but it was around 42F, overcast and very windy. It felt very cold. I went there with the intention of running with a short sleeve shirt and shorts. I ended up running with a jacket and nylon pants, and regretting it immensely half-way through the race. My jacket was soaking wet when I got back. This running thing is nothing but a mind game. I almost always feel like quitting 5 minutes into a run, whether on a treadmill or on the road; but I rely on self-talk to get me through it, and am usually glad I did -after it's over. I envy the faster runners who do a 5K in 15 minutes and are on their second beer by the time I get back. I'm hoping that I'm waiting on them, when the other 50 pounds comes off. :) I've been off work since last Friday, so I haven't been on the computer much. Been doing a lot of remodeling around the homestead; been afraid to look at the scales; will start afresh after the 1st of the year. Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. Here's wishing you a Happy New Year!
