Running just as fast as we can...

In an attempt to get fit, I'm signing up for the Minnesota State Fair's "Milkrun". It is a 5K run in late August. All others interested in training with me or watching my progress are welcome to hang out with me here.

Long time...

So, moving put me out of commission for a while. I am back on the wagon though. Or maybe it is that I'm off the wagon...running behind it...I'm not sure where to go with that metaphor...

Anyway, I ran on Saturday, Monday, and today. I keep doing extra week 3 sessions to get up to speed. My body slacked off a little too much. Although, as of today, I can do the week 3 workout straight through without wimping out.

Here is an inspiring quote I found:

“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 the body tell the mind what to do. The body will always give up. It is always tired morning, noon, and night. But the body is never tired if the mind is not tired. When you were younger the mind could make you dance all night, and the body was never tired…You’ve always got to make the mind take over and keep going.” ~ General George S. Patton, Jr., U.S. Army General and 1912 Olympian
