I have hit an unexplainable little slump. For three days in a row I failed to get up with the alarm. Moreover, I have procrastinated greatly with regard to my daily exercise. I can’t figure out this mental oddity. I have a weekly exercise plan with my running clinic. I know what needs to be done. I can’t account for why I keep delaying the inevitable. Temperatures have remained in the 90’s, and no meaningful excuse exists. I must say this is working me over mentally.
Each day I feel great once I got started with my exercise, but the getting started took a while. Cathartically, I write this blog in hopes of uncovering the psychological obstacle on my running path. It’s late in the day and I haven’t preserved The Streak today. I guess I’ll get going as no lighting bolt has come crashing in to help me better understand my current situation in the last few minutes.
I’m off to run; perhaps an epiphany will occur on the road.
