so much is going through my mind

Registered for TC marathon





WHAT????
Yeah, I did.
I can't run 26.2

YET-
************************
Let's see,
What else...
Thought I was on the brink of an injury
went to the chiro
Zip-crack-pop

I walk out a new woman
Can it really be that simple?

No-
IT band still needs more working out
BUT my alignment is fixed
And THAT, my friends, is a crazy gift
Who knew?
I took a little jaunt of a run to find out
Where exactly my legs were on the wonky meter

The run found my legs a little scared
Tried to reassure them it would be OK
Promised them a foam roll session when we got home

On I run-
A friend drives past
Honk- waved & yelled  "Go Heather!"

Made my day
My legs begin to trust me
And THAT, my friends,
Is a good feeling

Think everything's going to be alright

Yep, I surely do~

Saturday, October 1st, 2011 I ran my 13.1 The night before, the excitement was almost unbearable. Sick to my stomach excited. Pep talking my way through the course in my mind, I wandered through my day almost in a fog. But this morning, I was calm. No emotion. This has happened to me before, and last time flat scared me. It didn't scare me this time, though, just a feeling of nothingness. I ate granola, drank a small Gatorade, water. I stuffed my pockets with fruit snacks, baby juice box in my compression shirt. Two more juice boxes would be stashed along the first leg of my run to find at the end. warm up walk out the neighborhood- It is 5:35- It is dark. All week long I'd mulled over a route for this run. Then yesterday night I realized I wasn't planning for the dark... I was in denial. I even googled the sunrise, and found the sun wouldn't even begin to show it's face 'til after 6:30, with an official rise after 7. College and High s

Its happening... you can feel it in the air  You can see it in the way the sun hits the grasses on the side of the road Hear it when you open your door and the kids are outside playing It's running weather... I know you feel it too.  That feeling that you get when you have to lace up and get out It's been a while though A long while...  Hesitation sets in, you second guess You tell yourself it's probably nothing Probably procrastination from some more pressing projects on your plate. But I can't shake it... So I ran.  and walked.  and ran some more... and took a few pics to commemorate the beginning of the season.  Running Season.

Well guys, I’m back at it Running I know what you’re thinking “She’s said that before” But... I’ve run 3 times in the last 5 days I guess you could say things are getting pretty serious... Go ahead and giggle—- I did. So here’s a rundown... Because I know you’re curious It’s hot Really hot I forgot how odd the first few runs are You have all the confidence in the world But none of the staying power Everything’s moving Everything It feels weird So you stop Catch your breath Start back up Only this time your earbud falls out So you stop Catch your breath Start back up But the shirt you picked has sleeves And it’s sunny Super sunny You worry about a farmer tan So you stop  Catch your breath... And on it goes Wow, this running stuff is not what I remembered Do you ever feel that way? Overwhelmed because things aren’t going how you thought they would? You paralyze yourself thinking about what s
