Can I ask you a question (to you specifically and to this thread in general in case anyone else wants to answer). - When the alarm rings and you take the first few step out of bed do you want to train?
- How about while having coffee a few minutes later?
- Or how about after eating some oatmeal <insert your quick meal of choice>?
- How about when you start putting on workout clothes? Do you want to train yet?
- How about 2 min into your warm up?
- What happens at 7 minutes into the warmup?
1. Hell no!
2. Even less
3. Motivation dropping even more
4. Fear and depression creeps in
5. At times start feeling better
6. I am going to re phrase this as "15-30 min into warmup": Start feeling like much better, by end of working trying to own it.
-- My bad times in races are normal at mile 9-11 of a half or 18-22 of a full, and yes much like getting out of bed i remind myself that i have and will get through it and I can't waste all those mornings i woke up at 4:30am just to give in at that point in a race.
2024: Bevoman, Galveston, Alcatraz, Marble Falls, Santa Cruz
Edit: I don't even like training I like racing fast which just takes a shit load of training!
