Today has turned into a mid week blah!!! At the moment I am tired and sore, I did an awesome strength session on Monday afternoon, DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness) and I are not seeing eye to eye right at the moment.
I have just sorted out my 10km run for tomorrow morning which will include some undulating hills. I am hopeing with all my heart that my shins feel better than they do at the moment.
So as you can see I have put the above image here, as its not just what others say to us that can be negative its what we say to ourselves as well. I find usually when I am tired that my head is all go, and the body is like...yeah nah! I have learnt that there are negative thoughts that I have, that try to stop me from going out for my training session, and today was one of them, but my reasoning was that because I was sore, it would be best that I leave my next strength session till the weekend. I am ok with that, as my body felt like lead in the pool this morning. So here is hopeing that my run tomorrow morning is a better one than yesterday.
I am a firm believer in affirmations, and positive thoughts. I am also a very visual kind of person, so by having these images, as above keeps me focused on the job at hand, which for me is my training, and making sure I am eating right. I will say the road is never dead straight, there are always bumps and turns. It is our choice in how we deal with those bumps and turns. So this weeks bump, is sore shins, and with that the positive is I have time in the morning to get onto my trusty roller and relax the muscles in the legs and hope this helps my run, oh and there is coffee at the end of the run, which is always the best!
So with this I say goodnight and hope everyone has a great week and stay positive even when you hit the odd bump or turn in your road.
