So tomorrow is the day! Been thinking about it a lot over the last several days. I went out this past Saturday morning for what is seemingly my last "easy" run for a while. Starting tomorrow, the running becomes hard again and that, is a great thing. I feel that over the past few months I have become complacent. I have begun to find myself stuck int he same old same old. Ya, I was still running but I wasn't running with any clear direction, I was just running to run. There have been times where I wasn't even enjoying it. One of the things I often tell people I help train is that if you don't intend on pushing yourself hard, why bother. Well, honestly I have not pushed myself very hard these last few months. After I PR'd in New Orleans in February, I have basically just taken my running for granted. Well, not anymore.
Training Week 1 Day 1 Starts TOMORROW!!!!! I am going to do my very best to keep a daily journal about how my training is going for anyone who actually cares to read about it lol. Even if I am the only one, at least I will be able to go back and reflect. Wish me luck over the next 18 weeks. We shall see in the fall if this new plan is actually worth anything more than the paper it's written on.
