I had a great 4.5 mile tempo run today. I ran it in under 42 minutes…a time I haven’t gotten since last year. Finally – I’m back to where I was last season in my running.
During the run, I was keeping a steady pace, controlling my breathing, staying focused to hold the pace, keeping good posture, steady eddie up the hills, picking up the pace after the hills, imagining that I had to keep up that pace for 2+ hours. I felt like I could do it. I listened to Eminem’s “Lose Yourself” the whole time.
Here’s what else I’m feeling…
You better – lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go (go)
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

You can do anything you set your mind to, man… Eminem
