Day 1, Week 12 (an uphill battle)


Logging my training hours,and posting my plans is one thing.Reporting on the workouts is completely and entirely another! It's important to know not just the schedule, but what that actually entails on my body and mind. As Monday kicks off and my week begins I'm writing because today was difficult. It seemed like I just didn't feel well, I didn't eat the best, and when I got to the gym the pool was full of 60 yr old saggy-bottom old ladies so I couldn't swim...today the little things were just stacked against me.
So a little improvisation in my training, and decided to run it out on the treadmill. But to no avail, I just didn't "feel" good. Never really found my stride, and at 3.5 miles I was just mentally beat. Today I took a beating. I felt it physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
My plan is to not let it get to me, I'm reminded that days like to today were sure to come, and no doubt there will be more before this adventure is over.
My prayer is that this week I honestly address those areas where the devil has a foothold in my life and attack those with fire before I expect the other areas (even my training) to get better.
