Ok, let's DO this!! Ooh, Abba! I love Abba! This reminds me of Liz! Liz will be running with me next week, that's going to be so much fun, I love running with Liz! La-la-la, I got this, I can do this. When I'm done with this I have to be quick because I have to take the kids's Christmas Card pictures before we go visit Santa. Got it. I'll be done running in under 30 minutes, half an hour to get myself ready, should be no problem. That was really good cheesecake last night. I shouldn't have eaten that. I should run faster. Let's go faster. Ok, not that bad, I can handle this. Yes, Divine Miss. M., I AM beautiful, damn it!! Cheesecake and all!! These earbuds are pretty cool, I don't even notice them in my ears like with the ones that come with the iPhone. You know what would be really cool? If I got Liz a pair of these, then we could both be listening to the same playlist while we run together. I wonder if she'd be game for that. Man, I'm really sweating, I should be close to my 2 miles now. WHAT??!! Only 0.6 miles so far??!! This is ridiculous!! I'm not even at a mile, I want to do 2 miles today, how on earth am I going to do 3.1 miles next week??!! This is impossible, I am a total failure. What was I thinking signing up for this stupid race? I'm not a runner, I can't run things, I'm going to be so slow and Liz will want to be nice and stay with me but I'm just going to hold her back. And she should really go for it because she's gotten really fast and I want her to PR this race...why is this song on here? Nobody can run to this? God, I can't even get a playlist right, I am an epic failure. I hate running. It's stupid. I'm never running again, why do I DO this to myself??!! Why, oh why does it have to be the quickest and most efficient way to burn calories and stay in shape??!! Ugggghhhh!! Will these 2 miles ever be OVER??!! **sobbing** OMG, Melissa Etheridge...yes, I run for hope, I run for life. She's alive. She beat cancer and is still kicking ass. If she can beat cancer I can run 2 stupid miles. Thank God I don't have cancer. What if I have cancer? I should have taken better care of myself. I should have stopped smoking sooner, started eating better and exercising much sooner. I should stop giving the kids hot dogs. What if THEY have cancer??!! OMG, I'm giving my kids cancer!! **sobs more** Ooh, 1.5 miles!! Only half a mile to go! That's not so bad! Yes Amy Steinberg, I should just keep on!! Half a mile is nothing, I have done this tons of times. I'm actually pretty amazing! I can't believe I've even been able to run AT ALL with how sick I was as a kid, and I've done a whole bunch of 5K's. There are so many people out there who can't even WALK a mile and here I am, sad that running 2 miles is hard. Get over yourself Bel. Put on your big girl pants, suck it up, and just run. I am sooooo lucky. I have a treadmill in my fucking basement. I can run whenever I want. I should run every day. EVERY. DAY. Don't take this for granted, you won't have this time home forever. Ooh!! I'm almost done!! 1.85 miles!! Let's go!! Lets push it as fast as I can go!! I can run at an 8 no problem!! I can do this! I can do this!! I DID IT!!! YES!!! That was an amazing workout!! I really need to do this again tomorrow.
And this, my friends, is why I cannot run a marathon. This was me left alone with my thoughts for 2 miles. I think if I did 26.2 you'd have to commit me at the end.
