feeling a little :P

i went out for my walk tonight and managed 2.5 miles in 44 minutes. my time seems to have peaked and slowed down ever since i got sick and i can't seem to get it fast again. i'm not sure what's going on, i do know that work has gotten a LOT harder mentally and physically & i am often left feeling pretty drained. tonight was the first time i have really been concerned that this is more than i can do. i know that i am making progress, i really can see that, but i'm not sure i will be able to progress enough by race time. anyway, at least i am out there and working at it. i train tomorrow with the group, so i will talk to my coach about it. sorry for the bummer posting, but i figured it was better to be real than pretty....

Don't forget that the schedule is only a guide...sometimes life gets in the way and messes with you. The exercise will give you more energy and is said to lower your stress. You may not see it on any given day but if you keep moving, you will see more improvement. Part of your training is just staying at it and getting your miles in. There is still a lot of time to go.

Proud of your efforts to date.

You're going the distance... not going for speed. :)

What do you call the person who finished last in a Half-Marathon?

A Half-Marathoner!
