So I missed a couple of training runs. I missed my 9 mile run on Saturday (I went snowboarding instead), missed my 3 mile run on Tuesday, the 5-miler on Wednesday and the 3-miler today (Thursday). This weekend, I'm supposed to run 10 miles and Iono if I'll survive — I'll do it, but I'll prolly die or summat >_<
Anyway, I need to keep myself motivated. I do not want a repeat of my performance (or lack thereof) @ Chicago. I mean, I finished and all, and that should be an accomplishment of it's own, but it's tough being a “runner” especially if yer older sis is a “veteran” runner (14+ marathons and counting… eep!)
I think the photo below will motivate me; remind me of the 26.2 grueling miles and the 6+ hours on my feet. I want to shave a whole hour off that time, too… I've got a LOT of work ahead of me >_<
It's blurred out, but if you check the name above me, it's a 65-year-old Kiwi who finished around the same time I did. She's freakin' 65, though! WOW.
