Much better day today. Now I'm glad I took the rest day. Decided to tie my shoe differently. I think it helped a lot. I'm working on my posture and learning to relax on the run again. I need to get past the numbers on my watch. They fuck with my head. Sorry kiddies if I offend but they really do. I have a 2:07 goal time in my head for October and I really want it but there's a little naggy voice in my head telling me to back off a bit. I think it's just a little apprehension. I've thrown times out in front of me before and I haven't reached them. The disappointment is sometimes crushing.
Highlights from this mornings playlist include:
- Wind It Up by Gwen Steffani
- Don't Stop Believin' the Glee Cast version
- 'Till I Collapse by Eminem (I love Em. SHHH... Don't tell anyone!)
- United State of Pop 2009 (Blame it on the pop) DJ Earworm
I love the new Eminem album. I added it to my running playlist a few weeks ago. Nothing like some good music to get you movin'--I love the Glee song too!
ReplyDeleteI love the new album too. I listening to Love the Way You Lie over and over. It's like being a teenager again! Right now 'Till I Collapse is my "power song" on my Nike+ profile :-)
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you were smart and took a rest day.
ReplyDeleteAndrea got a new Mac and I got a free ipod touch just for being a teacher... sweet deal. Can't wait to take it out on a trail run. I can use my wireless headphones instead of ear buds.
Have you signed up for Cowtown & CIM?
I'm glad I took the rest day too. I'm learning from past mistakes! That is so cool about the iTouch! I'm jealous! I haven't signed up for either yet because I was waiting for the okay from the doc. I'm signing up for CIM today because the price goes up tomorrow to $100.00.
