Two More

Ran another two miles today on the track. Felt pretty good between laps 6-10. And of course 19 when I booked it. My visual aid was a flashback to when I was playing softball on the church team and Erik was running behind me, hoping we'd both cross home plate. I can't believe how out of shape I was then. I collapsed on home plate, my legs gave out from underneath me. To the fans, it looked as though Erik had pushed me.

I keep going to the track and thinking, today it will be easy to punch out two miles, I've been doing it for over a week. But each run brings its mental blocks and walls. I even got a cramp in my side by lap 18, but didn't stop. I tried to work it out during my cool down and stretch.
