Maybe One Day

I will do this with fidelity and therefor finally have the results I've been striving towards for years now.  I mean the lack of consistency is amazingly frustrating.  I realize that it is all me but I swear the thoughts in my head are both encouraging and damaging and ultimately can be stagnating.

I did my 2nd half marathon back in March in NYC.  Disaster!!! Finished but my time was off and by the end I was limping like an old maid.  Of course what I did to prepare...









Exactly.  Nada.  Maybe a 3mile hike here or there but nothing strenuous or serious or pushing me so not surprising that was the aftermath.

I'm on day 2 of this push.  I know - here we go again.  But if at first you don't succeed...

Day 1, I did 6.5 miles through Nashville.


Day 2, I walked a total of 5 miles (to and from) Shelby Lake.



Let's see what day 3 will actually hold if anything.  And of course more traveling at the end of this week which always seems to deter me.

The mental game one has to play with oneself and the fortitude behind it is amazing but I can only take it day by day.
