I ordered the steak. I can substitute a salad for the garlic mashed? Why on Earth would I do that? Another bottle of wine? I think we will. Dessert? Yes, please.
Why should I care at this point, anyway?
These past few months have been a bit of a roller-coaster ride for me. I lost focus on my training. I can blame it on a lot of personal struggles – the laundry list of excuses are all there. But that’s all they are is excuses. Because running doesn’t care if you just went through a divorce. Running doesn’t care if you’ve moved into a new home or if you’re adjusting to life as a single father. Running only knows running – and if you’re not training properly for a big race such as a marathon, then running is going to get its revenge.
