This is a place to put my crazy ramblings about law school, running, and just life in general of a hyperactive, 2L marathoner.

Looking for my running ju-ju
Let's face it - I need to get my mojo back. Since our Team Tiara group runs have stopped, so has my motivation level. I attribute this to 2 things: 1 - the change in the weather. It's freakin' cold outside (paging Captain Obvious!) and I just don't do cold well. I know right now my friend in NYC is laughing and telling me to put on my big girl panties and deal with it; and 2- the lack of accountability with running partners. I am in a quandry here because I have one faithful running partner that can meet in the mornings and one who can meet in the evenings. My evening partner is the one who plans to do the full at Shamrock with me. In the mornings, I have issues because my membership where I shower is quickly running out (only 3 visits left) and I will not buy a gym membership just to use a shower. Plus, once the mileage for the full training ramps up, it will be very difficult to do before work. I don't want to leave anyone out who wants to train, but I've gotta get my butt back out on the road before I loose everything I've worked so hard for. Thursday morning I'm doing the Electric City Gobbler 5K and yes, my goal is under 30 minutes. After Kiawah on December 5, I am recommitting myself to training (even if I have to go it alone, but I certainly don't want to!). This will include strength training and diet. I need to get off a few pounds that have managed to adhere to my hips and thighs. So, keep an eye on my training log posted to the left and help keep me accountable. Somewhere I'm going to find that great running ju-ju.

I know what you mean...I think that is natural, not just with running but life. All it takes is the actual setting of a seemingly preposterous goal. Then you will be set. Keep up the great rambling!
