I Didn’t Enjoy Marathon Training, So Why Am I Sad?

  • Kerrie

Guys. I cannot wait for the race on Saturday to be over.

I’m not sure what that means. I guess it means that I am ready to move on from the hot mess of marathon training. Yep, I’m the Tara Reid of marathoners.

At the same time, I’m a little sad that it’s all over.

I KNOW. What?

Does that ever happen to you? I mean, I’m not enjoying marathon training this time around, so this sadness is sort of surprising. I’m damn proud of myself, though, for sticking it out. I did all my double digit runs SOLO. Can’t believe I did that.

Today, though, I couldn’t believe how hard a 2-mile run felt on the treadmill. It went really slowly. Yeah, okay, I didn’t enjoy it. I started to think about how I’d have 2 plus 24 more, but I snapped myself out of it.

Marathon Training is Over, Why am I Sad?

Afterward, I got the mail and in it was my new Believe Training Journal by Lauren Fleshman and Roisin McGettigan-Dumas. And I got even more excited for this marathon to come and go because I want to tackle a scary goal.

I don’t know if I’m ready to share it yet. I may want to keep it close for a while. But I will say this…

It’s NOT another marathon.

    Oh girl. I understand 110%!!! I’m in marathon training #5 and I feel like I’m up and down between hating what I’m doing loving it. But, I think when it’s all said and done we will be insanely proud of ourselves for sticking it out! I’ve set a lofty goal for myself this time and it’s scary. I have the Believe journal. You will LOVE it. The words on those pages have helped me push harder and harder. Can’t wait to read your marathon recap!!!
