It's just the start of race season for me (half marathon this weekend, then full marathon next month!!! Yay!). But this winter I got to a really ugly place where I HATED to run. After a busy fall race season, I should have taken a couple months off over the winter, but I had committed to running a half in January, so had to keep my training up all through December. I actually didn't put up Christmas lights on my house this year, because any day it was actually nice enough to be outside for an hour or two, I spent running. Bah humbug! Spent way too much time on treadmills and trying not to kill myself on ice/snow. Got to January and realized that I was pissed off every time I had to run.<br /><br />It's mostly better now. I think the change in weather has been the biggest thing to make me feel better about running again- finally a little warmth, a little sun! Although, I still have my really negative moments. My long run day last week was on a super windy day, and there was no other day I could do it (and no way I was doing 20 miles on the treadmill!) so I went out and ran in the wind. The first 10 miles were straight into a steady 23-28 mph head wind with nothing to block it. It sucked so bad. After 5 miles I was angry. After 8 miles I was crying (literally, like kinda weeping about how bad it sucks to run into the wind). At 10 miles I got hit full in the face with a HUGE wind gust, and it was just too much. I RAGED against that wind! Screamed every bad word I knew at it! I was just so utterly angry!!! And then- I turned around and ran with the wind to my back. And I was OK again.<br /><br />I'm really lucky noone was around to hear me. I would probably be writing this from a psych ward right now- that's how stinkin' crazy mad I was. Ugh.Chrisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-90306965589070612842014-05-06T12:56:35.551-07:002014-05-06T12:56:35.551-07:00Ugh, suffering from this right now.

And I have Ironman Raleigh in 3 weeks, Ironman Louisville in August, The Bourbon Chase relay in October, and the JFK 50 mile race in November. And I ran 3 relays in 6 weeks and two half marathons between October and December 2013, promptly injuring myself. I'm burned out mentally, I took a day yesterday off, when I was supposed to swim an hour yesterday and blew it off. I love racing and always bite off more than I can chew, but I think I have screwed the pooch in the last 8 months, and next 6...YogaGirlATLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13168031203325502597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-51728495505101457192014-05-06T12:36:13.435-07:002014-05-06T12:36:13.435-07:00I love this idea!

But I think one of the chief reasons I didn't do another IM after my first is that I knew I was not mentally there to handle it. And then I will say that last fall, after about four marathons in two years, I burned out on the distance. I think it's really easy to do. Just keep tabs on yourself and always remember that when it fails to be fun, there's no point in pushing it!misszippyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16816276167373260149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-33541786623268078182014-05-06T09:38:02.846-07:002014-05-06T09:38:02.846-07:00I start running in Feb & March, then ramp up t...I start running in Feb & March, then ramp up to a half marathon every May, continue with halfs and trail races through summer and train for a Fall full marathon.

Rather than pushing through it, or quitting everything entirely, I do something else active but totally unrelated to training. Kayaking is my favorite non-training sport.
