Full Disclosure

Okay. That post earlier today we can call my "Complaining Blog" or "Woe is Me Blog". I could delete it, but that wouldn't be honest - and I am above all things going to be honest!

I don't know if it is genetic or environmental or what it is, but I have always been one big quitter. Okay, with one notable exception - but that's the one thing I've NEEDED to quit for a long long time. Yes, I know - my inability to quit has really been "quitting the quitting". I just have never had that "stick-to-it-ness" that some people have, which is a really huge regret of mine. My husband has it, which I greatly admire, and I have been hoping that some of it will rub off on me.

Today I ran the 4 miles. I did it. And I have to keep on making myself stick to the program, because I really don't want to be a quitter anymore!

I really cannot understand why some people think running 4 miles is easy. I truly truly don't. Maybe it's because I've never been a runner, and so I've never gotten to that point. That would be such a great feeling - to run 4 or 5 miles and think, "Wow. That was really easy!"

Anyway, forget all that stuff about me having too much on my plate. For me, it's a challenge and a learning experience to get it all done. I know I can do it. For you, Kyle, just as much as me.

  1. When you start adding miles, you'll see why I feel that I would rather run 20 miles than 3 miles. 3 miles sucks. 4 miles sucks. It's only after you get past 3 and 4 and 5 that you really start to feel good.

    Stick with it! You're doing great!
