A bad run will not derail me. A summer of heat and humidity and too many excuses will not derail me. I WILL NOT DERAIL ME! People, I have a horrible habit of getting all self-defeatist and throwing in the towel the second something is too hard or hurts too much. I admit after yesterday’s [...]
Written late Sunday night. So today in this post is actually Sunday not today, which is Monday. I set out this morning to run 6 miles. I found the perfect place and I mapped out a 1-mile loop. I was up with the alarm at 7 and I never get up with the alarm…I always [...]
