Inspired By The Olympic Athletes

I can’t wait to watch the Olympics tonight. I will watch just about any Olympic sport, however I have a certain fondess for track and field. I thought about the Olympians today as I was struggling through my run on the treadmill. I debated whether to quit at 4 miles or run 5.

I watched television coverage on the TVs at the gym. I had my running mix on my ipod and just when I wanted to quit, Madonna’s song “Die Another Day” came on. The song is 8:35 minutes long, so it got me through the last mile. I’m glad I did it. My 10K is coming up in 4 weeks. I’ve been in active recovery since the Boston Marathon in April. Now is time to get in gear and crank it up!
