Note to self: Run more.
Note back from self: I don’t want to run any more. It makes my knees and back hurt. Besides, it was ten zillion degrees below zero this morning – what kind of nut do you take me for?
Note to self: What do you mean you don’t want to run any more? I gotta get ready for the marathon, and it’s not going to get any shorter. And it was not “ten zillion degrees below zero this morning” it was about 10 below zero. I’ve run when it’s colder.
Note back from self: Oh – so you’ve been stupid enough to run when it’s COLDER than 10 below zero? What a wing nut. And just because you’ve spent your hard earned money on punishing yourself in a marathon, this means I have to be in pain for the next six months?
Note to self: I understand that the pain not fun. But there is a purpose to it, and you have admitted in the past that it can be fun – the feeling of being out in the open, the freedom, the rhythm. It’s not all bad.
Note back from self: Your right, it can be fun. But I’m not running when it’s ten bizillion degrees outside. I just won’t!
Note to self: OK, no running when it’s lower than 10 below zero. Actually it was about 12 below this morning, so today didn’t count. Change the training schedule to reflect that.
Note back from self: Run tomorrow?
Note to self: You bet!
