My biggest obstacle as of lately was in my head! I heron a good run and think, "I'm not good enough to run much longer." Which I try to push back, only to give in. Now I'm still finishing my time, but not as fast as I could! It's so frustrating and I keep trying to move past these thoughts, but I keep giving in!!
It's also happening with my diet, thinking you don't need a cookie. But then I have the thoughts, "Well one cookie won't hurt." Okay now I am closely monitoring my diet, but I give in to ensure no cravings or fallouts. However I have given up fried food and high fat foods, with no cravings or troubles.
But back to the point, why is my brain trying to make me fail?!? I am running a half marathon on June 2nd, with my stepsister and that is final. I want to do my best and these next 15 weeks are key to me being able to do that.
I know I somehow will get past it, but needed to share this frustration.
Just keep putting the time and miles in. You'll get there.
