Reaching a goal
Well, I am signed up to run a 5k next Saturday. I’ve been running casually for a while now, and I’ve really wanted to see if I could run a 5k. So today I used mapmyrun.com and found a 3 mile run, and gave it a shot. I was so afraid of failing but I did it!!!! I couldn’t believe I did it. By the end I was so mentally exhausted, more so than physically. It took everything I had in my brain to complete the run, but I did it. Now, next week shouldn’t be as daunting as it’s been. I’ve been building it up in my mind, and I’ve been so afraid of failing. Today proved to me that I can do this. It’s not going to be easy, but I’ll make it. And holy crap, it will be a MAJOR goal achieved for me. That will be pretty damn sweet.
