We can do so much more – we just have to embrace the pain (discomfort).<br /><br />Congrats on the successful run!Tri-Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09164926140098806417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4053030335037533161.post-71327526751081337462011-01-24T09:50:33.548-06:002011-01-24T09:50:33.548-06:00Congrats on the 20 miler

In the first mile, I had pain, so I walked a bit, I was going to walk the next 5 miles (this is on an indoor 1/12 mile track in my gym), then I thought, well this is going to suck walking another 60 laps and I dont want to be here all day, so I guess HTFU and ran more, and pain freeish, working the galloway system. THis was a huge mental victory for me, because I never have shied away from saying that I do not like th run and the run is my limiter.Big Daddy Dieselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07868041775049514011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4053030335037533161.post-91507008742584040262011-01-24T07:43:08.133-06:002011-01-24T07:43:08.133-06:00I hope that you can clear your head.
Come race da...I hope that you can clear your head.<br /><br />Come race day I am sure there will be numerous times that you are going to want to back off and not pull the trigger to stick with that one guy in front of you.<br /><br />I have always known running is 100% mental. Anyone can run, but can anyone run fast? <br /><br />When I have tough workouts, I don't look at my schedule. I look at it the DAY that I do the workout. That way there is no mental prep, there is no talking myself out of it. That get's me through my long runs haha.<br /><br />Keep it up!Matty Ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13447270565189789394noreply@blogger.com
