Short-Term Running Goals: Maybe run a few more marathons?? Stay healthy, motivated and consistent. Races are fun, but unlike the hokey pokey, its not what its all about for me. Its about health, sanity and feeling great about myself bc I can call myself a runner. :)

| | Scott likes to take the boys to the skate park on Saturday mornings and since today is a holiday, they went today also. The boys have been begging me to come and watch them so I decided to run there. It's mostly downhill so its not hard other than traffic. There was a head wind going South on 7th East but it was fine. I was hoping the mileage there would be more than 3 but I did assume it would be around 3 so whatever.
I laughed at my thoughts on the way down there how all kids are narcissistic. "Mom, watch me..Mom look what I'm doing..mom watch..mom tell me how great I am..mom, mom, mom, mom, mom, mom, mom,...I'm so awesome..tell me I'm awesome..mom, mom, mom..They're whole lives are about them. And we sit there as their parents and say "oh that was so great! you are so awesome! Congratulations on being the best freaking person alive in the whole universe!" It's no wonder adults are so deflated. They don't have people cheering them on anymore. And then when adults recieve a compliment, they question it and don't believe the person's intentions, motives and wonder if there's something wrong with that person. Are they brain dead? It's too bad that adults esp teenagers can't take some of that confidence they have when they're 8 with them. Anyway. for the love. I really need to stop using the internet as my journal and making all of my thoughts everyone elses business.
I full on expect you to cheer me on with my 3.1 miles today. I want to hear that I am so awesome and amazing and my accomplishment deserves a trophy. Everybody dance now.

| | Failed attempt to run. I have a sore throat and low energy. I kinda knew it would be a fail but I thought I'd give it a go anyway. Made it half way around the block and decided to forget it. I know. I should have kept going. It might have been the greatest run of my entire life. I know how it can change after a mile, but whatever. I chose to be a failure instead. Stacie saw me and pulled up in my driveway to talk. We chatted for awhile. Good to talk to you Stacie, its been 900 years.
