Favorite Running Quotes:
1.
"Sooner or later the serious runner goes through a special, very personal experience that is unknown to most people.
Some call it euphoria. Others say it's a new kind of mystical experience that propels you into a elevated state of consciousness, a flash of joy.
A sense of floating as you run. This experience is unique to each of us, but when it happens, you break through a barrier that separates you from casual runners. Forever. And from that point on, there is no finish line. You run for your life. You begin to be addicted to what running gives you."
~Nike Poster
2. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
You’ve no doubt heard this. And you’ve probably recited it in your mind on a run or at the gym when you’re just beginning to get in shape. You have a goal in sight and this quote brings you back to the current moment.
But the problem is that many runners forget all of the steps between the first one and the goal. If your goal is to run under two hours for the half marathon then you need to be honest about all of the little steps to get to that goal.
You should have goals, but you should take it one step at a time. And you should be honest about the fact that you don’t know how many steps it will take to get there. ~ Vernon Gambetta
3. Human beings are made up of flesh, blood and a miracle fiber called COURAGE! ~ George Patton

| Hospital Mile loops - 5x1200 + 400 - 64 degrees. I should have worn a hat. SOOOO sweaty.
I think I have runner's knee. My quad just ablove my knee cap has been hurting for awhile. I guess my quads aren't very strong. Action: strengthen quads
These felt OK. I've decided I don't like looking at my watch. My legs felt heavy, but I'm not sure if it is because of the runner's knee or too many miles in general.

| Major family crisis last night and I didn't get to bed until 1:00am. It was too hot to run outside when I was finally able to go, so I went on the TM and abandoned all workouts. So physically and emotionally tired.

Still feeling discouraged about how hard yesterday's run was but then I had a killer TBT workout.
I saw Scott Mckeel TODAY about my quads. He said quad tendonopathy - basically they are too weak. He gave me some exercises and some hope. I haven't been sleeping very well and am wondering if I'm closing in on burnout.

| Out/back on MCT - 64 degrees. REDEMPTION run. OMG...I can't even say how good I felt today. I was SO discouraged after my long run on Monday. Today's run felt effortless. I decided that if I was feeling ok, I would try to pick up the pace a tad at the turnaround point. I was able to hit tow miles in the 8:00's. My quads have felt SO much better after seeing the PT on Wednesday. I've been diligent in my exercises. I have so much hope!
