The grind to becoming great and developing diverse skills is a journey. This journey has only been productive when I live by the mindset of "Iron sharpens Iron," so instilling this same mentality with every situation in life can fuel you to the finish. I hope. I think. Whatever just keep grinding.
Yesterday, I planned on killing my workout the next morning but something went off inside of me to run at 10:30 last night. Can't really explain what it was but I was ready. I suit up and get to the track to find out that the stadium lights are now off. So what do I do? Embrace the night.
The only problem was my calorie intake was very low so passion was needed to make this a productive run. It turned out to be great. The temperature was chilly and I was rocking a t-shirt so I knew if I stopped then I would get cold and sick.
The training session consisted of a quick warm-up, dynamic stretches, and the run. Here's how the run went:
On miles 2,3, and 4 I was able to average a 8:10 mile. A good time for my meathead ways. My feet felt really good as I rocked my new running shoes that my girlfriend purchased for me. She's the best. The perks of dating an athlete only benefits my lifestyle and mission to progress, so obviously I freaking love surprising gifts for the grind.
