Back when I ran, sounds like it was an eternity, but back when I ran... I struggled with my brain when I ran. It was either my greatest ally it my worst enemy. It could only work as motivation, so internal goal setting, if it does anything else, I would be done. I couldn’t even listen to music because I would end up sing and lose my pace. That and my singing annoys other runners.

I had similar feeling when I would run like dating but I think my feelings were that of the poor girl across from me, like “ what the hell have I got myself into.”

Good job on the 25k!!! Keep it up
