Just Add Speed

Hi :)
I've been seriously neglecting this thing for a while now, and I finally decided that I just needed to suck it up and write something.

My running has been good lately, and by "good" I mean I haven't fallen down or had a heart attack yet... although to be honest, speed work days have me feeling like I could have a heart attack at any given moment.

You know what's weird though? Despite the "I'm about to die" feeling, I've begun to enjoy speed work days. Yes, it's uncomfortable, but just knowing that your body can run like that is... amazing.
I know, it sounds weird, but I don't know how else to explain it.

Other than that, my running has been pretty much the same: foundation runs, recovery runs, long runs. As monotonous as it seems, it's actually been quite the interesting journey so far.
Oddly enough, as each week passes, the dread or nervousness I've had towards the Half gets less and less.
In fact, I might be looking forward to it now... Might be.
I'll keep you posted.
