December 29, 2010 - Too Fast!!

Yo Run Gang,

My New Year's resolution is to not let ego get me into trouble with my running. Ego comes into play in many ways, for example, when I run with people I often find myself keeping up with them and running too fast a pace or longer than I planned or where it fits into my training, risking injury. During races, a pain might come up with only a mile to go and I foolishly push through it only to lose valuable running days, lost to recovery, all because of ego.

When we start to compare our running with someone else's we are asking for trouble. We all have different genetic makeup, health histories and life experiences, no two people are alike. 3 miles might be a fulfilling long run distance for one person and it might be 30 miles for another. I plan to set goals and training schedules that will be fulfilling to me and applaud all people who have reached their personal running goals whatever they might be.

Let's crush ego and experience a new found feeling of freedom and self fulfillment!

Randy Step, and obsessed runner, setting realistic goals and missing fewer days of running in 2011, so I can better enjoy my running obsession!
