Dragging My Running Shoes


It seemed like a good day to do be reminded of this. I am about to head out to get my tempo run in and of all the training runs in a week, this is the one that is most difficult to lace up for. It's a 4mi run with two loops in the park and it has been tough. It is the only run that I head out on that even before the first mile, my head it screaming to stop. Somehow I have made it through for the last several weeks, but each time I head out there is doubt. Call it it faith, call it stubborn but I keep pushing through. I realize this is the point of the exercise, to push through the discomfort and make the legs familiar with running faster when they don't want to. None the less, it remains a tough one to get out there for.
