Gotta get back in the groove

Thursday, August 12, 2004 05:55 PM

I've done a lot of pondering about things in general, and I think I'm going to attempt another marathon. I guess it's time to battle myself again. It's a messed up mental thing. But it's so very challenging, and a very different way of seeing improvement. I think it will push my mental and physical self into this crazy level that needs to be explored, and conquered. But unfortunately all I can think about is mile 20 and how much pain I was experiencing. I hope to really get myself at the peak before the race this next time. I also think i'd like to do more hill workouts, I think that's a better way of training. But that's probably just me. I guess it's time for track workouts, and one long run every week again. It's basically time to get busy again! I can't believe I'm going to do this again. I mean the first time was pretty much "alright i'm going to do this...," then you get there and do it, and while you're doing it and you hit mile 20, you ask yourself, "why am I doing this?" Do I need to seriously experience this? I guess it makes sense to me because what the hell else am I going to do? Sit and watch TV, hell no.....perhaps occasionally, but no way am I going to engage in something that not only slows my motabilism, but also lowers my IQ! I mean dependancies are bad, umm kay? For some reason I see both them practiced quite frequently. I think sometimes people see comfort as the easy way out of a situation that requires thought and meditation. It's hard to be at peace with things and not be a push over, then there is an extreme where it's hard to not be at peace with things and completely not see where people are comming from and push them over. I think what I care about the most is not being comfortable. I see too many people making that mistake.
