I'm just not happy with my running right now. I realize that I took almost 2 weeks off and am now having to get back to where I was before. I feel like I'm moving along at an okay pace, but then I see how long it took me and exactly how far I ran and I'm not happy at all. Today I ran 2k in 26 minutes and I thought I ran further and a bit faster.
Physically I feel okay. I had to wear my knee brace because that's bugging me a bit, but other than that I feel okay. I'm just really upset about how I'm running. I have my goal by September 24th to be under 30 minutes for the 5k. I'm afraid that I will be setting myself up for disappointment. I know that I'm way to hard on myself and I have to learn to just be happy that I did my best, but that's not good enough for me. I want to be better than just okay. I guess I'll just keep on going and know that I have that goal in mind.
I also have to realize that even though I have these goals, I am also running becuase I enjoy it. I love the early morning runs and the peace and quiet that comes with them. I just need to focus on that.
