The Beginning

I have always been one to push through the pain so to speak.  I have not been easily distracted until recently.  Now I can feel every tight muscle or the pain in my toes, ankles, hips and knees.  All of the sudden I can't ignore it and I stop.  Today I went out for a 4 mile run and barely made it through 1 mile before I stopped and walk.  Not only did I walk, but I turned around and only went a total of 2 miles.  What is happening to me? I felt like a quitter when I got back to the Y, yet I still stopped.  

Workout:
Ran 1 mile (goal was 4) 
40° windy 2:30 pm

Food: 
1 mini cinnamon raisin bagel w/ cream cheese
1 Biscuit
4 chicken tenders, macaroni and cheese, lettuce w/ balsamic vinagrette

  1. Just stumbled across your blog! You can do it! The secret is to do lots of bike training, so you can bike 57 hilly miles and still be able to run! Yes, the Duke half bike course is 1 mile long! Good luck!
