AM- 3 easy.

PM- Michigans w/ 1 mile warm/cool w/ striders.  This workout was the most embarassing to pvxc from me....I am sorry to everyone who watched it.  I gave up on myself...the worst thing you can do and didn't dig deep.  I didn't talk to anyone after, just kept asking myself "why did I do that? thats not me...where have I lost myself in running?"  I was frustrated cause I didn't know the answer.  Then, a friend asked me why I started running.  And he said as soon as you forget why you love something, it becomes a chore.  Running is hard enough and there is no room for people going through the motions.  I thought about it and I just need to write down why I love running:

- All of the team and coachs attitudes, examples, and fun they bring into my life

- The ability to be gutsy and dig so deep that you find a new you.

- The satisfying feeling after you've given it all.

- The feeling of going fast for miles at a time.

-The fun we have on runs.

- The feeling of being in tune with myself and really figuring out things about me I'd never find anywhere else.

- The feeling of improving and proving yourself wrong

I think I've forgotten that.  I'm sorry that I have been such a poor example of what PVXC is all about in my recent workouts.  It won't happen again.  I promise.

Believe that you can run farther or faster. Believe that you're young enough, old enough, strong enough, and so on to accomplish everything you want to do. Don't let worn-out beliefs stop you from moving beyond yourself." -John Bingham, running speaker and writer
