Fear is something that is inside of you, right? If it is inside of you that means that YOU are bigger than IT is, so YOU CAN conquer it!!! Definatly. It comes from about 50 years of low self esteem. If I am running (or even crawling) I am doing better than most. It just is hard to remember that on race day. THIS ^ !!! Who cares what other people think!!??!!?? No one running is going to care if you are slow. Do you really care what the people who are sitting on the side of the road who aren't even brave enough to enter a race think? Those 50 years are in the past. Don't live in the past, it distracts from the now! There is an entire village that KNOWS you can do it. We may not be there when you run but we will always be cheering for you! Don't think about the other people when you're running. Think about the crazy conversations that have taken place RIGHT HERE! Before you know it the race will be over. EXACTLY. However, I think my greatest problem is with the other racers. You know, the whippet-gazelle-cheetah-arab-horses. Us turtle-snail-koala-sloths don't fit it. Though I do know this is all in my head. NO ONE has ever made me feel anyting other than welcome and encouraging. It's not how fast you go that counts But how far you really get For the race is not just for the swift or strong But for those who never quit OOOHHHH I LIKE that !! That is a keeper. I saw it as someone's signature line once. It's the Iron Tortoise Credo. Yah, well it's attributed to you now! I see that.  |

You have been spending so much mental time on swimming. It's hard to give 100% all the time to all the sports. And it's just Freaki' cold and snowy in PA |

I'm trying to make a conscious effort to get more sleep lately. I think naps at work would be an effective solution to the problem but I guess they kinda frown upon that. Later! I agree with work naps and I totally agree with extra sleep - took some this morning and skipped Boot Camp class. My body loves me for it right now also! Naps are WONDERFUL. They MAKE us have them when we are kids then, suddenly, without warning, they are BAD. that is so wrong. |

| Champion 6225 | Subject: RE: The Ghoulies are taking off the pounds in February!!! ceilidh - 2010-02-17 7:16 AM Morning Stacie! You have been spending so much mental time on swimming. It's hard to give 100% all the time to all the sports. such a good point ROBIN. thanks for that gentle reminder. and thats the thing...ive been focusing on swimming AND cycling/spinning cuz im just not feelin' it in the run as of late. i think its 100% mental....ive attached a situation to running that i really just need to let go of, and i think thats what impeding me...that and the fact that ive had this cranky hip for awhile. the hip is better. i just need to get my head back on straight. hopefully the next few runs will afford me that opportunity. here we go! stacieb |

Mine are clear - but I would ride anyways - I am weird like that If we had snow instead of black ice I might... NO, no I wouldn't. Unless I knew there were no cars whatsover. That is what is great about the parkway. They close sections off to vehicles because of ice so you can ride without any cars at all. The sheet ice in the tunnels is pretty funny though. It is like watching a bunch of beginning ice skaters try to get through. I just sit down and slide through the tunnel with my bike on its side. |
