"Now if you are going to win any battle you have to do one thing.

You have to make the mind run the body.

Never let thebody tell the mind what to do. The body will always giveup.

It is always tired in the morning, noon, and night. But the body is never tired if the mind is not tired."

A First Time For Everything

You could say that running and I have a love hate type of relationship. I love a good challenge, just like I love a good run. It's how I sort things out. It's how I maintain self-esteem. It's my therapy. There is no denying how great it feels when a goal is set, achieved, and celebrated.

WHAT NEXT-5 miles

The thought has crossed my mind about what I'm going to do after the SLC Half-Marathon. I really don't want to go back to doing nothing. I am planning on doing the 5k for the city, so I'll work on getting good speed, but what else? I checked into the Wasatch Back relay marathon today. My training schedule correlates with theirs. The timing is perfect. It's sounds like so much fun. You have a team of 12 runners and you each take 3 legs over a 170 mile course. All you do is sleep, run , repeat. And, of course cheer for all your team members. So, all I need is a team! That's the not so easy part. Anyone interested? I could always join a team of 11 people I don't know, SCARY!!!! I am going to give it some more thought, we'll see if anything comes of it. At least it has me thinking. My run was energizing today. It feels so good, most of the time!
