On the run however, my mind is weak. I stop at the exact minute of my training run. <BR/><BR/>The 1 min can be turn into a 5 min mind challenge. I just use 1 min and see how that goes.Cliffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03227378544813320248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13273897.post-1141761167998839212006-03-07T19:52:00.000+00:002006-03-07T19:52:00.000+00:00Oops - I wasn't finished....I can't believe how cl...Oops - I wasn't finished....I can't believe how close you are to your next marathon Thomas!!Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01247706206261725627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13273897.post-1141761071394067932006-03-07T19:51:00.000+00:002006-03-07T19:51:00.000+00:00Well - have you begun training yet...and how far i...Well - have you begun training yet...and how far is that marathon any way? :0<BR/><BR/>Of course the rain stopped when you finished your run.Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01247706206261725627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13273897.post-1141759181524780182006-03-07T19:19:00.000+00:002006-03-07T19:19:00.000+00:00I lucked out and missed the rain this morning.

I find it hardest to walk out the door when it's raining. Once I'm out in it, it doesn't really bother me too much. <BR/><BR/>I heard my husband and Rob talking about this once - how it used to take them a mile or so to feel warmed up, but the more they train for distance, the more miles it takes to hit the groove. Maybe that's what happened to you today?Backofpackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13779487553272296752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13273897.post-1141757036878487052006-03-07T18:43:00.000+00:002006-03-07T18:43:00.000+00:00At least he didn't ask how far your marathon was. ...At least he didn't ask how far your marathon was. Thomas, your kids make blogging parents around the world like me say, "At least I don't have it as bad as HIM!".
