Bad hoodoo
Today was the kick off to marathon training with a 5 to 7 mile run.
Unfortunately I had a bad start. I had to stop at a little under three miles due to twisting my ankle on a rock that I couldn’t see because the defrost on my eyeballs were not working due to the seriously negative windchill. I don’t think I have sworn than many times in a row, that loudly, in a long time.
Usually I am not smart enough to stop running. Today, with the cold and the ankle, I think it was wise, no matter if it is the first day or not.
I’m just going to put this out to the universe…I do not have a good feeling about this marathon. This hiccup doesn’t help. With my bunion still being burdensome, I fear serious pain in my future. I have no idea how I am going to finish this race in the time I want in any kind of good physical condition.
So, since I’ve said it here, I now must give it away.
Go away bad thoughts…BE GONE!

You’re going to feel a LOT better about the running once this cold snap departs. I can’t bring myself to run in it. It is just too damn cold. Thursday’s looking good.
I think we all just need this winter to be over! We will get back in the groove soon. Oh, and running in some morning light would be helpful, too. Hang in there.
