After having some pretty crappy runs, I actually had a decent run this morning and it got me to thinking how different they are.
Bad run: That traffic light is going to turn red, I'd better stop running now and walk up to it.
Good run: I think I can dart through those fast moving cars and not have to stop running, even though the light is green!
Bad run: I'd better stop and walk around that tree stump to be safe.
Good run: Hey, this is like the steeplechase if I jump over that tree stump.
Bad run: God, I'm thirsty. I've been out here for ten minutes!
Good run: Why did I bring this water belt?
Bad run: I have to pee again?
Good run: I'm barely sweating....
Bad run: I can barely catch my breath.
Good run: Did I forge tot breath again?
Bad run: Where did that ache come from? My back never bothers me...
Good run: Nothing hurts? Is it the shoes????
What about you???????????????

Ahahahaha... so funny and so TRUE! I always giggle at myself when I try to catch a red light on a bad light VS a green light on a good day. We are a logical bunch...
Thanks for your comment, I promise I am being CAREFUL! Will drop down a bit this weekend after two weeks of milestones. :)
HA!!! I've lived through every good and bad you've just described...
Oh, I SO know the traffic light example! All of our lights flash the number of seconds before it will turn red, so when it's a bad run, I'm like, "20 seconds? I can't make it." But during a good run, I'm like, "20 seconds? Of course, I have time!"
haha! I HATE when I have to stop and pee or when all I can think about is the delicious water waiting for me and why I didn't bring it with me.
