So I came to a realization today. Over the last little while, I have forgotten that running is only about ME. I have started to think in terms of me and other runners, and comparing myself to them. This has been really bad for me because I realized that these comparisons have made me discouraged and unmotivated to run. I need to remember that no matter what there will always be someone faster, stronger, or with more endurance then me and that I just need to run for ME! sorry, that was just me little heart to heart talk I had with myself! :D

The run today. Felt really good! We got rid of more of the walking. Once again I repeat that Dani is the awesomest running buddy ever! She pushes when she doesn't want to and she has a really good pace, I don't even think my pace would be this good by now if she wasn't with me! I think I found a born runner who never knew she could run! :D After the run though I felt SUPER sick! Almost like I was going to throw up! I can't have any more SUGAR cause I remember how sick it makes me!
