I forced myself to run today. I had no desire to run, but I had to keep with the program I instituted. Somehow, someway I ran under a 9 min pace the entire 3. something miles. I know I tracked one mile at 9:30 and another at 8:34.
I know that in the beginning of all runs (the first 6 minutes to one mile) I always think to myself .... "I hate running", "when will this be over" etc. By mile 3 I start thinking of sprint tri's and maybe I could do one. Then I realized I have swim 16 laps in 2+ years and maybe I should get up to 32 pool laps and then decide. This discussion with myself makes .5 miles go pretty fast.
Ok the littlest wants to dress like spiderman so I must fufill his wishes.

It takes me about 20 minutes of running to get comfy. Of course, if I'm only doing 20 minutes of running, then it's crappy all the way.
A sprint tri should be fun. Just not the "Captain Crunchy Sprint Tri".
that is so funny, I have a very similar experience as I run.. nice job on the pace today!
