Fitness blah-g
17 days to next race. 10 days to training taper.
I am not comfortable with my physical readiness state. However, I think I have a good cardio base, seasoned mental stamina, and buckets of will power.
I predict
- I'll finish
- I'll run the entire 10K
- I will be utterly exhausted when I'm done
But I'm okay with that. I'm a little panicky because I haven't 'mocked' it up so I don't really "know" I can do this. Because of that I'm not really 100% sure my run WON'T look like a fast stumble. But I'm okay with that, too; as long as I "think" it's running, it's running.
I'm very excited, though.
( Training Notes: Endurance vs Speed )
P.S. No sewing last night. Life is what you experience when you are making other plans. Sometimes it's a victory just getting the basics taken care of and I'm always very grateful for managing the basics; the rest is frosting on the cake and I'm not supposed to be eating carbs. So I'm borrowing everything I can and winging it.
