Miley Cyrus and I ran 6.2 miles yesterday, (she dominates my running playlist these days, who would have thought her teeny-bopper tunes could pull me through) and although most everyone else's posts out there about them running a certain amount of miles tends to lean towards the "It felt so good" and "Oh it was just so invigorating" side, I had NONE of those types of thoughts or feelings, but these did go through my head...
"Why am I doing this again?"
"Oh man my chubby relief society arms are rubbing against my tank top and totally chaffing."
"Oh great I have to pee"
" I really hope there are no more curbs I have to hop up because I cannot take another slight level change"
"I wonder if the boys are still sleeping so i can call and have Dan pick me up and go to Mcdonalds for some pancakes"
"I cannot believe I have to run this stinking early just to avoid the heat"
"Are my legs supposed to feel like this? this doesn't feel good"
"Now I remember why I have always been a dancer and NOT a runner"
"That's a cute car......ouch.......stupid curb"
Now really, I have no IDEA how on earth I think I can run the half marathon, I thought I was going to die yesterday and I didn't even do HALF of a half marathon. UGH. I really need to think of more practical "things to make me feel like I have achieved something in life" goals, maybe I should stick to things like shoe tying competitions or maybe scientific smile studies.
over and out-

I personally happen to think you are amazing and totally agree with the whole "hate evry step" feeling toward running. Those people who "go for a run" to have a good time- THEY are the ones who are crazy!
lol... love it! You crack me up! Love the honesty!
