Back in town. I headed down to Red Deer for a marathon on Sunday. I wimped out and only did the half marathon.
Goal: >1:40
Result: 1:41:33
Need to get ready for work. If I feel inspired I will write a race report later...

my last time for 14miles before my vacation was 1:52:00...so I guess 1:41:33 ain't too bad considering you wimped out on the full distance...
This ? could take the rest of yours and my life to fully answer.
Some short points:
1. I have never been to the doctor, but I suspect that if I did I would be diagnosed as mildly depressed => I have the need for self punishment.
2. I am a Nerd => I feel the need to answer ?'s that come to me, like can I complete an iron distance event.
3. Addiction: most people that continue to workout describe the desire to work out like an addiction. I'm no different.
4. Back to I'm a Nerd => I enjoy the mental aspect of working out to the max...the mind quits long before the body...is my mind strong enough to push my body to new limits?
These are specific to me...I don't really have anything to tell people on how to motivate themselves.
