As many of you know I have been training for a 5K for most of this year. I started the Couch To 5K program the beginning of January and have stuck really close with it. I had gotten up to the point where I ran 20 minutes without stopping. I had gotten my 5K (3.1 miles) time down to 35 minutes. I ran a mile in a little of 9 minutes. Then this week......I hit a wall. I do not know if it is normal but I hit it and hit it hard. I do not want to go to the gym, I do not want to run, I do not want to eat right. I hit a wall. Not sure that I can get over it, or go around it. This is what I know, I do not want to go back. Back to not running, back to eating junk and weighing over 350 pounds. I do not want to go back. Next Monday I will actually back up to week 5 in the couch to 5K training and blast through the wall. The wall does not feel good, but there is not any other way to handle it but to blast right through it.
