Total Distance

4.50

It was so much cooler today outside but the run was hard. I felt like I was barely moving and it was extra hard. I'm going to a place called muscle works today in Lehi that my cousin told me about. He is a runner and goes there everytime he's injured, he said they work miracles. I think its worth a try. He told me to take some kind of pain meds before bc he said it hurts so bad that I will have tears but worth it in the end. Cross my fingers this is true. I feel like such a wimp, I think a lot of my injury is fear of the injury itself bc of the marathon training. Not that is doesn't hurt, bc it does. But I want to run the marathon and I'm so afraid that if I don't fix whatever this is that I will miss out. Chances of that happening are probably slim but it still scares me.

p.s. why do I WANT to run the marathon? Even as I type that I shake my head. I have an runner girl on one shoulder and a couch potato on the other. Couch potato is trying to beat up runner girl but runner girl has her cape on and she's not takin' that shiz. Then couch potato is like "whaaaa? you crazy girl."

Anyway, sorry about the tangent. Get High.
