I cannot believe that I have gone from being addicted to running to being allergic to it.
I've been trying to get back to it but I can't seem to stand it anymore. It bores the hell out of me. BUT. One rainy morning, I woke up and suddenly felt that the thing that kept me going before is back!
So today I registered for the 21k category of the 2nd Quezon City International Marathon.
Haha what a 'comeback'. But in all fairness I wasn't totally inactive the whole time I've been off the road, I've been attending RPM like a crazy person so I believe the endurance is still there. The only thing I've lost is the willpower to do it. I really think that running is a mind game, that pain is only in my head, etc etc etc. Hay!
To help me get back on my feet (figuratively and literally) I've decided to start a running journal. Actually I've made a separate one but then I'm not really the kind that has multiple accounts online. The posts starting from this onwards are meant for my eyes only because this is just my little project to keep track of my progress at keep myself motivated at the same time. (But you are of course welcome to read if you want, otherwise I wouldn't publish this on the web would I? :p )
Race day is on December 5th. Training starts tomorrow! :)
