Venting

It's 7:30PM. I'm sitting on my couch eating dinner. I haven't run yet. I have accomplished pretty much nothing today. My motivation to train has pretty much been in the shitter. I have been racing ok, but I could be racing a little better if I actually got in some solid training. I'm not in the worst shape of my life, but I know I am not anywhere near where I was this spring. I know the solution is as simple as getting out and running more and stop being such a whiny little bitch, but the day to day grind of life seems to have caught up to me. I'd like to know what happen to the days where I was willing to run up mountains at 5:30AM or do speed work around snowy parking lots in the dark. I'll stop my ranting and get some sleep so that hopefully I don't embarass myself at Mayor's Cup on Sunday.

  4. I'm giving you a penny per mile for a good cause, so you better start running.

  5. I'm really not the person to give anybody any advice on running consistently BUT I've found my best success when I'm unmotivated is to try and make it fun for yourself instead of making it such a chore. Go out and run for yourself. Make it a reward for yourself after a long day at work.
