im conflicted GHOULIES.
today i was 'supposed' to do a 3 miler w 8x100 striders in prep for the race on Sunday.
a
) my hip is just a tad bit cranky, i think from the poking, prodding, moving and adjusting the Chiropractor did yesturday
b
) im just not in the mood.
what i need is 'permission' to drop this workout, and im having a hard time giving it to myself.
that's kinda of dumb isnt it.
even as i type this, i think. how ridiculous.
ive done every workout on my plan. i even did INADVERTENTLY .8 xtra miles on a long run.
you'd think i could just let this one go.
but no.
im my head im thinking, im not gonna do 'as well' at this 1/2 MARY if i drop this workout.
wtFLIP?
somehow one workout TRUMPS all like a gazillion ive done
(not in the mood to do the actual math, but you get my drift
)
the striders really werent on my plan to do, it was a 30 min tempo.
i suppose i could see how im feeling later on, this evening, and if im feeling up to it, i could go and do a short 30 min tempo run....
tomorrow is most definately a rest day.
and on saturday i have a 1-2 mile easy planned.
maybe i should stop over thinking and just go w what my body is telling me and then tell myself its ok to listen to your body and not do the plan as is.
crimaney you'd think i lost my marbles or something.
