"By means of the small things, I lost the important things." Utada Hikaru - Dareka no Negai ga Kanau koro (When someone's wish comes true)

I am really struggling with running. I just don't want to be at it these days. I ran on Monday, but since then I feel like total crap. The way I usually am when I get the flu. I seem to only get full body pain. Then yesterday I was so worried about getting enough fruits and vegetables I really didn't eat many carbs. I felt so sluggish and gross. Not good. Never again.

Today I'm going straight from my work meeting to around the bay. Chances are I won't get any exercise there either, let alone eat very well. Though I plan to be more conscious. I ate cookies like crazy last year, mind you they were home made. But I'm just accounting for the annual toutans we always have.

I can't wait to get back to school with the gyms open to me. Then I'll really start my training. Gotta be able to run ten miles before next July!

Even though I seriously question it often, I will keep plugging away in hopes that I'll catch the bug without hurting my body too much. I really need new sneakers, cheaper than new knees.

Will work on calming her nerves,
