A Weapon of Mass Creation

Marathon

Posted: 1 year ago by Slinkerbell

 

The Los Angeles marathon is in two weeks (yikes!) - I feel so unprepared, but i don't think any amount of running would change that.  When I run I challenge myself mentally with little things; run 10% faster for a full song, focus energy into core muscles or upper body, pick up speed while running downhill.  But I think this marathon is going to be all about simply doing my best.  I want to run the whole thing (save a bathroom stop if I need it, gatoraid, and water stops) - I'm pretty sure I can do that.  I don't expect to be in great condition when I finish, I know it's gonna hurt like hell, but I need to do this.  It's hard to explain why; I don't even know if I'm going to have that feeling of accomplishment afterward or if I'm going to say "one more - or ten more".  I don't really enjoy running that much, but it's kind of therapeutic and it definitely feels good when i push myself.

 

So, here's to finishing what I've started and conquering my fears - I'll be posting my time in two weeks!
