I know I can.. but my mind isnt ready today.

Yesterday I met my cousin at Pecos park at 6:45am. This used to be the park that we would do boot camp at 5:30am in the freezing desert winters. Once that was over we used to meet there by ourselves and run/walk until a creepy homeless guy was there watching us and then we stopped going all together.

Anyway yesterday we RAN and talked the entire time 42:11 to be exact and 512Kcals burned. I did it again and proved that I CAN run but always liked the excuse of I can't so I didn't have to. I was so excited that I almost made the next step and committed to a group run on Saturday.. Still thinking about it! Not sure why I am so afraid of the group.

Well today my mind was not there at all AND it was a Bike ride..UGH what is happening. I'm also very sore - my legs and my left knee hurt so bad. Plus I'm exhausted I think from working out this much. OH and to top it off I had to ride on the trainer because I had an early meeting and it was too dark to ride outside this morning. But after all those perfectly pathetic excuses I have to say I managed to struggle through 35:48 mins 302Kcall burned (should have been 45-60) on my bike, on the trainer, in the living room, fighting every ache, bad song, mind stopping tactics and boredom.

At least I did something and will NOT get discouraged!
Tomorrow is a rest day and then Saturday- to run with the group or not, that is my question to myself...

We will just have to wait and see!
