Nothing exciting or thrilling, or even particularly challenging about last nights treadmill run except that I FINALLY got back to running. I got a glimmer of motivation from it and I just need to feed that feeling a few more times to officially be back on the training wagon. My legs were a little reluctant towards the end. But as long as I get out there and continue to give it what I've got I think I will be back to my peak in a few weeks; having excellent long runs and enjoy it.
I can't shake this feeling that I have been 2 steps behind for the past 2 weeks and frantically trying to catch up. Behind in training, work, my life....There is just so much going on with friends and family activities, trying to plan a wedding now in 5 1/2 months, running, working, Toastmasters - the list goes on. So far I haven't had any major meltdowns which surprises me. I guess I feel like I've been handling everything fairly well, but I still feel a little bit like I am waiting for that meltdown.
Balance. Word of the week. Remember to balance, Emily.

Great job on getting back on the training wagon, especially in light of everything you have going on. Just bite off little bits where you can and try not to get overwhelmed. You will get everything taken care of and ultimately it's probably better to have too much going on than nothing at all (at least in my opinion); as long as you can still make time to take care of yourself (physically/mentally/spiritually). :)
