Sat - 7/5 - 3.0 miles, 37 mins
Today was the first time in weeks that I have felt 'down'. Late afternoon was setting in, and I hadn't run yet (which would have made it 3 days in a row). After losing 5 lbs by Wednesday, my weight had crept back up about 3 lbs from eating out Thursday and Friday night. Anyway, I forced myself to the park. I took off down the path towards the pond that makes up the first half mile and got about a tenth in when I noticed people had set up for a wedding at the edge of the pond. And several were sitting on the path! I got a bit perturbed and, not wanting to ruin the wedding by running through it, I turned around and started walking back to the start. I really contemplated walking back to the car and going home. But I started running again and when I reached the car, kept going. I ran the trail clockwise for about a mile and a half then turned around and came back. It was slow. I didn't feel good. But I ran anyway and when I got back to the car, I was feeling much better. Funny how fragile the pysche is.
