What was I thinking?

Oh ladies, what was I thinking when I took on the challenge to do the Hood To Coast Race? It all started when a friend gave me this running schedule for the race and said she started from beginer and ran the race. She ensured me that I could do it too. So here I am, on week 10 running a horrible 11 minute mile. Joe officially put me on the team which got me worried. Doubt can really scare a person to quit. I keep talking myself out of it but I keep fighting back. Then I looked on the Hood 2 Coast web site and flipped through some pics. I noticed that there are NO over-weight people that run that race. I looked through hundreds of pics to find someone my size and there is none! That’s a bad sign. My weight is up again and I’m overwhelmed with the battle I have faced for the last 13 years to loose weight. So does this every stop? When can I just sleep in, never worry about food, and never feel bad about my weight? Hummm…..keep dreaming. So anywho, I’ll keep working on the running and it will truly be a huge accomplishment if I can follow through with the race. Wish me luck! Hope all is well with all of you!

    aha. this is the very reason I refuse to participate in the h2c. It’s just a whole other league of people. I certainly don’t want to be around my brothers while they critique smoken’ hot women either. Yes, I am insecure.
    As for you, Rebecca, you will rock the h2c. Just focus on the accomplishment and your own strengh to keep on going. Keep it up!

    Rebecca, you can totally do this. But you must wear a skort. =)
