So, I had all the intentions in the world to run 9 miles this morning to celebrate my official first day of complete freedom. No more shortened summer work schedule, no more assignments due in school, just FREEDOM… But when my alarm went off at 6am, I set it back 15min.. then another 15… then another 15. At 6:45 I decided “Who am I kidding? I need to sleep!” So, instead of running 9 miles, I slept in until 9am. (Which I haven’t done in a long, long time. Not even on the weekends!)
But tomorrow I’m hitting the pavement and I’m hitting it hard. Because my dreams of running a sub-two-hour half marathon aren’t going to become a reality unless I work at it this summer. I’m so close I can taste it. Gonna make those 9 miles MINE!
