So, I've come to a realization. At first, I was looking at my little sidebar, cursing myself for only managing a lame 5 days of cross/strength in April. Seriously - I set out to concentrate on this aspect of my training this month, and all I could eke out was 5 days? But then I realized ... for the first time in my life, I prefer running over anything else! This has never -- never, ever, not even in my dreams -- happened before!
I really have despised running up to this point in my life. Even when I started last year, I viewed it as an obstacle to overcome, but I don't think I ever really imagined myself reaching the point where I enjoyed it. But somehow, without me noticing, I learned to love this crazy sport! Given the option, I would rather pound out 5 miles on the road than pump away in a gym, walk, roller blade, play tennis, or even swim - my ultimate favorite pastime.
This is big news, people. Maybe I am just trying to find some good news in the very, very bad news that I only managed 5 days of "other" activities this month, but that's OK. I'm all about positive reinforcement.
