Florencia Begins THE SHADOW PROJECT

[ck2006]

Hi! Love the takiniteasy name...I wish I could! LOL

Today I went for a run with BF...
of course when I go alone it's a jog...Man I am so ashamed to admit that I have a hard time because I compare myself so much...
(him being an ironman, always has been kind of a runner...me ney...more girlie things in the past, aerobics and golf, jogged because I HAD TO DO CARDIO)
I want so much to be perfect and it just makes me have a bad time...
I feel bad when I run with him, because I am not even 1/4 as afst as him...so I just get on this dumb ride....He has some "aquaintances" who are not at all good runners, so they are known as Johnny Walkers...I felt he had switched from Johnny Walkers to kindegarden cop....with me...I know it is dumb and all the adjectives we can name together...sO INSTEAD OF IT BEING A FUN RUN, IT WAS PREASURE YOURSELF FLORENCIA....
I will overcome it somehow...any ideas?

Well enough whining...
I did cardio on empty only two T-Rex and coffee before the run...

He wouldn't run with you if he didn't want to . Don't push yourself too hard when your running, (you can injure yourself and actually injure your chest wall muscles by over exertion ) and if he is going to fast ask him to slow down. Tell him it is his easy day for running (every runners got to have them)

If you want to get better at running, it shouldn't take too long, I surpassed my husband this year, but then he doesn't practice. I strongly suggest 2 hits a week and target a distance and a time you want to accomplish it. But pace, pace pace. I would rather finish than get to tired.

^^ CK I you .

Beautiful Flor ... STOP being so hard on yourself. In so many ways YOU ARE another womans (& I'm sure a mans) idea of what 'perfect' is. Your own personal Ironman I'm sure adores you.

I truly believe this idea of 'perfect' is a never ending journey... You will never reach the end of the road, and you never the goal. Your ideal 'perfect' will always change as you get closer & closer, and you will then set new standards. Try to focus on what you have accomplished so far, you HAVE to start somewhere. You will become a better runner if you keep at it. CK nailed the physical aspects of it, but it's up to you to adjust the mental part.

Hang in there you are doing fabulous.

Happy Hump Day!
