This week is a great week to "start fresh." I was so pumped every time I "started over" because I was ready, mentally and emotionally, but something got in the way every time!! After our trip 'o family, I was ready, but a week later, we were traveling again. As soon as we got home from that and I was ready to start again, we were trying to spend as much family time together as we could and when Ben wasn't at home with us, I was trying to run errands to pick up things he needed or get things done around the house.
Like I said, this week is going to be a great starting over week. I will have someone at the house all week to watch Connor so he doesn't have to go to childcare, I will need a good excuse to concentrate on things other than my life, the weather is great this week, I am throwing out most of the junk in the house with the trash tomorrow....it's going to be good.
I have learned recently that as I run, I am just trying to finish my run. I haven't had the feeling of getting close to being finished but running that extra .25-.5 miles, just because, in a really long time. Until today! I was going to the gym, while Ben had Connor, for a 3-mile interval training. I had decided to start easy with 4x1's. Felt great!! Best I have felt running in so long! I ended up, the last mile, running 1/4 mile, walking 1/4, etc.
This week is going to be great! I just need the confidence again that I really can do this!
