Sick, Uninspired, and Unmotivated.
Yeah, I know, who wants to read about my woes. Quick question though; did you think of
Joey Lawrence or
Keanu Reeves when you read Woe (
whoa)? For me it was Keanu, but not the
Bill & Ted version, the
Matrix version. You know, when he is standing on that rooftop, after just doing something totally amazing, then stares into the camera and says, "Whoa."
O.K., a good thing is that besides being a bit sick my body is in good shape. Post Marathon I have logged a couple of bike rides and ramped the running back up to 20 miles a week. The speed is slowly coming back too. I feel good.
I have the Gobbler Hobbler 10k this weekend. I am looking forward to besting my 2006 effort. It is crazy to think that last year this 6.2 mile run was my longest ever. After that I hope to run one more 5k or 10k before brunt of winter rolls in.
I have some thoughts for December motivation too. Currently I have trudged 2882 cycling and running miles this year. I want 3000. I may knock this out by doing a December-A-Thon.
WTF, you say? That would be running every day in December no matter how far or short. We shall see.
