A little peek into my brain today:
4:00 PM - Ugh why did I eat that pizza for lunch? I'm not going to feel like a track workout when I get home
5:00 PM - Huh, I should probably start that run. But maybe I'll just sit here and stress out about my life for an hour or two
6:00 PM - I'm so over this stupid marathon. Why did I think it was a good idea? I think I'm over-trained. I'm tired.
6:30 PM - Okay, I'll force myself to go a mile, just so I can get my mileage up to 200 for this month
6:40 PM - Woah, I'm actually kind of feeling okay. Maybe I'll go to the track and run one mile
6:50 PM [lap 2 of mile] - MY LEGS ARE DEEEAAAADDD. I'm not even going to look at my watch, holy crap this sucks. I bet this will be like an 8 minute mile
6:53 PM [end of mile] - What? 6:51? How did I do that? Maybe I'll try one more
7:00 PM [end of mile 2] - Seriously? 6:43? Is my watch broken? My legs are almost feeling good. I guess I'll do the third one.
7:07 [end of mile 3] - 6:29? AWESOME!!!! I LOVE RUNNING!!! I can't wait for the marathon. Running is my favorite. YAYYYYYYY!!!!!
And there's the roller coaster ride that takes place inside my brain on a daily basis. Good times.

Yep, I can totally relate, except the 6 something miles. I will never see that, but it's all relative. Way to get it done! Nice1
