Training Day 10: "Never Say Never"

"I will never say never! I will fight till forever!" Nazipooo that is for you :) Anyways, so during my run today I was thinking how crazy it is that I am training not only for a marathon but a half marathon to warm up to the full lol. I can tell you that many many times I have said I would NEVER IN MY LIFE even attempt to run a marathon.  It was mainly because I did not believe that my body would be able to withstand the pounding, partially because I think running is dumb and the last little bit was I was scared.  Now today, 10 days into training; 81 days out form the LA Marathon here I am blogging about my 5mile run.  Not only did I think running 26.2 miles was silly, I did not believe in doing anything over a 100m and even that was a stretch for me hahaha. So today was a little harder than the others.  My knees are a little stiff, maybe from sitting down all day aaaannnd its so hard to stay focused when all I can think about is NYE.  The only thing standing in between me and the party festivities is a 3m and a womping 12MILE run ahhhhhhh... NBD just running a half marathon this weekend lol.  But gosh it feels SO FREAKING GOOD to be able to go to sleep every night knowing that I am doing something I NEVER in a million years thought that I would be able to do.  I challenge everyone reading this to do something each day that challenges you beyond your comfort zone... see where it takes you... and who knows you may find out something about yourself that you never would have known :) Happy Wednesday!! Training Day 10 down for the count! 5miles 43min Route: Along the ocean on Venice Beach into Santa Monica then back.  I LOVE THIS LOOP (minus the amount of weed I intake on mile 3 and 5 lol)
