Plenty of Reasons Not to Run

Thursday, 19 November 2009 - Written by eh617 [profile]

I had planned to do my maintenance run tonight. An easy (well nothing is too easy) 3 mile run. As the day progressed, I started thinking about postponing it. My side has been hurting. My legs are sore. A friend asked me to go get a beer. I resigned myself to postponing it until tomorrow. I also have been dieting pretty heavily and feel a little down on the energy side. Fortunately, a brief amount of sanity hit me at 6 pm and I put on my shoes and went. I can't say it was easy. My side hurts worse than ever and my knee seemed to hurt every minute or two, but I made it.

I know the feeling... not wanting to run but knowing that I need it.

I wouldn't wait until 6P. My "do or die" time is probably 5p; 4p in winter when the sun goes down early. Get outside for a quick 30 min run then all of the excuses not to run will seem like rewards.
