It has been almost exactly 3 months since i have started the training to run a 5K. I have had my worst time of all these past two weeks. Things were going great until fairly recently. To the point that i actually took a week off. I had been to the doctor and my cholesterol was the highest it has ever been, blood pressure up and not able to loose a pound. If i look back none of those things were my goal.... my GOAL was to RUN a 5K but they kinda of took over my goal. And when I received such a frustrating and disappointing report after working on this for 3 months i really became discouraged!
So, I ran yesterday and actually had to walk in the middle of a run for the first time .... I am going to really try hard to refocus this week. My first 5k is this Saturday and I was looking so forward to it! Somehow i hope my determination and confidence resurfaces and I continue after Saturday. I will let you know how it goes. Send positive vibes my way- self sabotage go away!
I'm not sure you got my message on your blog site. Keep going! you are almost there and have come so far! I am proud of you - you have done what I only sit back and say I want to do. Finish the 5K on Saturday and you will feel so empowered!
