Tuesdays have become one of my favorite days. It's cause I know when the clock says 5 p.m. I'm out the door! I work a lot, you see, and leaving at that time is very rare for me. But every Tuesday I have track workouts at a local high school and it starts at 5:30 and it takes me about a half hour with traffic and parking to get there.
Anyways, I've been going to track for quite a few months now and have come to accept the fact that I'm the slow one. I'm always the last one done and am usually passed by my fellow track runners quite a bit. I've been okay with that cause I'm still new to the running thing and eventually one day I plan on being faster then I am now and hopefully not the last across the finish line.
Today though I forgot to keep my reminders in my mind, ignore Lefty (left side of my brain, and focus on my running only. This is because 4 new people showed up and ran a pretty fast speed. Even with newbies I was still the slowest. I need to block that out. I need to concentrate on my goals.
I felt good after track tonight, but since I've been home for the last hour, I've grown sad. I had a recent death in the family, found out a friend also experienced the same thing, and I really miss talking to a certain person. I'm thinking we're on two totally different pages in completely different books. Perhaps something will change, but for now, I wait.
