Energy in, Energy out.

Embarrassing Week... :(

WEEK 4
Monday- 1 Mile Run, 2 Miles Lap Swim
Tuesday- 8 Mile Run HM Pace, 15 Min Abs/Stretch
Wednesday- 5 Mile Run Intervals, 30 Min Weights, 10 Min Stretch
Thursday- 5 Mile Run (Pulled Groin) (supposed to be 8)
Friday- REST
Saturday- Groin pulled (supposed to be 15)
Sunday- Groin pulled, 1/2 Mile lap swim

It boggled my mind that no matter the amount of dedication, determination or passion you put into running; your body does not always give you back what you put into it. Energy in does not equal energy out.

I get so frustrated... I have always been a believer that no one 'deserves' or is 'entitled' to anything! BUT if you work your ass off and put your whole heart into something that is how you EARN your desires.  It feels like no matter what I do my body continually comes back with slap in the face.  I just want to RUN.  Run Far and Fast and Strong! 

Have any of you pulled your groin before? Feels pretty AWESOME... not. I've basically been straddling a block of ice at work which has seemed to help.  I tried to run this morning, no go. Did weights instead and I will swim tonight.  I have a half marathon this weekend so it best be better by then!
