Everyone is entitled to a bad week, right? Well this was mine. For some reason I just couldn't commit to completing the full 5K HW these past few days. Instead of 5 intervals of running on Monday, I did three. I went from the track to Body Pump, and even walked out of the class halfway through. I've NEVER done that!! I just wasn't feeling it. I don't know why, yet I could list ten "good" excuses, per my mind. Instead of 7 running intervals today, I did 4. Again, I just found a reason. For example my Run Keeper Ap screwed up intervals and timing so instead of doing MATH and paying attention to the timer, I was angry and walked off the track.
I did do Pillates on Tuesday and Thursday and went to the group workout on Wednesday, but I'm still disappointed with myself. I feel that now is a crucial time to keep with the program more than ever. Tomorrow we are doing 7 intervals of 3 minutes walking, 4 minutes running and I feel so unprepared. Now is the point in the program where we are starting to RUN more than walk. I feel if I stray from the homework even for one workout, my body will be miles behind everyone else. It already is, and I'm just mad at myself. I feel like I'm back in school and I deliberately went to a party instead of reading that one chapter where 75% of questions on the final are taken from. I can't go back now, but I can make damn sure to keep moving forward in a positive way.
Next Saturday is the Spring Forward 2.5 mile race at Mendon Ponds Park, where I will be completing the scheduled homework at. All next week I need to stay on my game so I can be proud of myself at the end of that finish line. I know I can do it, I just have to allow myself to NOT put up with any excuse my mind may make. I know the changes I need to make and I WILL be successful!
