so one of the things i decided to do this week was to run a grand total of 30 miles on the treadmill between monday and sunday. theoretically, this shouldn't be TOO bad -- it's only running 4 and a bit miles every day. however, procrastination is the devil, and so while i did get to a great start on monday, tuesday and wednesday i certainly did not run and really didn't have much of an excuse for it. so wednesday night came about (where i probably should have run a couple miles to make a ding on the numbers i had to run, which had turned to 5 and a bit), and it wasn't looking any better. i started pushing yesterday, and today, i ran a total of 7.15 miles (5 miles in the morning, 2 in the evening). i've now got 14.92 miles left between saturday, sunday to complete this.
this was all inspired after an ultimate tournament and i felt like the least fit person on the field. part of me thinks this might be detrimental before the tournament next saturday, but you know, i need to stop making excuses, so here i am. whether i complete my goal by sunday, i've learned that (at least on a treadmill), 3 miles is not my limit. it's been a good time to fulfill my other goal for this week which was to stop making excuses about my lack of learning about God each day. i didn't realize how refreshing it is to listen to a sermon while running. it definitely takes the passiveness portion out of it. guess i can't do that on sundays though. hm.
this semester has been rough. gotta keep going though. almost there.
