Not a real fun run but I had to get it in. I didn't get the opportunity to run in the morning so I couldn't get 55 for the week but I could still hit the low end of my mileage target. Headed out at 9:30 for my only run of the day. I was in a mental funk for the first five miles, feeling really kind of stressed and I couldn't figure out why. Still can't, but I got myself under control and finished the run up even though it was really slow. On some of these runs, wanting to do well for myself isn't enough. I have to look at the team and the fact that in order to help, to contribute, I have to stick to the plan. I've done that on a few runs so far but I don't think the rough period is over just yet. Hopefully come cross country season, it'll pay off and I'll make a difference on the team. If I can't get my mileage in, there's no reason for anyone to believe I have much commitment. That's not the only thing I have to do, but it's a good first step.
