I did my 3 mile run today in 34 mins. I just couldn't seem to decide the right pace and kept changing it on the treadmill. Even though I ran faster than normal at times I inadvertently ran slower overall.
So after yesterdays frustrations I decided to take a look at exactly what I have accomplished so far. The answer a total of 27 and 1/2 miles. Not bad for someone who could barely run 5 mins straight when I started.
Hello Sweetie, its the Dad. Some days you win, other days you don't. Everyone has good and bad days. Last week I just could not find the "groove" and only did 2.7 miles in 30 mins. But at least I went on the run and put forth an effort. Yesterday I got in 3.21 miles in 30 min. Today I had some much at work that did not even think about getting a run in. Guess I am saying that you do what you can, and keep a positive mental attitude and it seems to work out. Just don't let the poor days ruin the good ones. Keep going when you can. I am sure we will be able to get the 1/2 marathon done. Remember, we are not aiming for a time, just to finish. ;-) Love Dad
