I feel like such a jackass complaining about anything in my life right now because I have friends going through some really hard stuff right now. My issues pale in comparison. That being said, I’m officially in a running slump. You’ll notice week 9 is conspicuously absent. Yes, I ran. Yes, all my runs sucked. No I didn’t run enough.
I have exactly 2 months until marathon day and while I was so excited before, all I can think now is ‘what am I doing?!’ I’m pretty sure this is normal, but still. I can feel all my self doubt creeping in and I’m not sure how to slam the door in its face and tell it to GTFO.
I have no intention of giving up quite yet, and I’m going to keep fighting and training as much as possible, but I feel sluggish and defeated, not to mention, incapable.
I hope that the next time I write a post, it will be happy-go-lucky and I’ll spew unicorns, glitter and rainbows. But for now, this is what y’all get.
Bah humbug.
