I was feeling a little better today. I challenged myself to stay on the treadmill for 8.5 miles. I wanted to quit several times. Physically I knew I could do it but my mind was rebelling, sending me all sorts of negative messages. I just had to plug thru it, telling myself it was my last long treadmill run before the marathon. And I made it, so I was happy that I was able to override the rebellious side of my mind. The taper can't come soon enough! |
