I should look back at the first few posts I made when I started this "Couch to 5K in 9 Weeks" program. I bet I'll be mortified.... abso-eff-ing-lutely mortified. I mean... duh... I was huffing and puffing and considering 60 seconds to be a lot of running.
Yikes! Yesterday was Week 8 Day 1, and I ran 28 minutes with no walking breaks. I did. Yes, at times I thought about giving up and I thought a lot about... WHY THE HECK AM I DOING THIS??? I can see "Resistance" (really, you gotta read "The War of Art," by Steven Pressfield
, and you'll start understanding the insidiousness of "Resistance") looming. Resistance is really pissed off that I'm doing this running gig. Resistance wants a piece of the action. Creeping Resistance.... when I put off running; when I can't find my shoes; don't have the right water bottle. You know the drill... Resistance wants me to succomb to his charms. NOPE! I'm going to win! Take that, Resistance!!!I'm in this until the end. Week 9 Day 3 and we party. Then what? Dunno. But I won't stop keeping in shape. I really need to work on toning my arms. My arms suck major. I feel like somebody's grandma. Oh, sorry. I really AM somebody's grandma. I just sooooo do NOT want to have Bingo Arms. This is my next project. Well, it will be my tandem project. That is... body project. Run and lift weight.
