Race in 3 days

Hi Everyone, Dont worry I am alive lol. Sorry it has been so long since I last posted on here. The school year has been very hectic. I have lost track of my goal to take better care of myself this year. My running (consistenly I have been running some) has been set aside not consciously but as a side effect of me not taking better care of myself. Earlier today I was thinking should I really run the 5k this weekend. But I have decided to run it. I may not be able to run the whole thing straight through, but I know I can at least run 5 minutes walk 1 for the 3.1 miles. I need to do this for myself. I need to give myself a present and that present is going to be not giving up on myself. On twitter I follow a group called real runners which just has lots of quotes and one that popped up tonight was "Sometimes I just need to believe in me". Right now that quote couldnt be more true. I was starting to believe in me over the summer but I slipped back a little I think. So tomorrow I am going for a run, and spending the night taking care of myself. I normally volunteer on Thursdays but am going to take this THursday off as I need to be selfish for one night. This weeks goal : Run that 5K on Saturday am.It is in Shrewsbury and I have one this course once before (if they didnt change the route) and I remember most of it is actually pretty doable theres just a big hill near the end when youre already tired. But I know I can do it. I will blog again after the race to let you know how it felt.
