**Still Day 186**

My 5K didn't happen.  I did about 1.5 miles, which took me about 21 minutes, but I only ran about 6 minutes of it, and then walked the rest.  I know what's going on....the closer the race gets the more I'm freaking out.  I'm letting it mess with my head - I'm afraid I won't be able to run much of the race, I'm afraid I'll come in dead last, I'm afraid I'll make a fool of myself, but I need to stop this negative thinking, and just run.  I know I can run longer than 6 minutes because I've done it before.  The race is only a couple weeks away, and I need to get myself in the right frame of mind.  I have to quit worrying, and just do it!!  So, tomorrow night I'm going to get out there with a better attitude, and run again!  I can, and will, do better!

  1. I have no doubts in my mind that, when you're standing at the start line of the 5K, you'll DO IT. I know you will. I know you can. ;)
