January 8th

Got out and did 8 today.  Felt really good.  I always feel like crap the first 2 miles, after that I ease in and get my pace.  It's those first 2 miles that I really just have to mentally get through and then I am fine.  I met my mileage for this week.  I was hoping to do a bit more but at least I met my weekly goal. 
I am at 22 miles for this week. 
I have to learn to stop comparing myself to other runners and be proud of what I accomplish. Every time I run, I think, "well, there are people who run 50 miles in day, this is nothing."  But the truth is I am not an ultrarunner, nor do I aspire to be.  But for whatever reason, I am always comparing myself to others.  I am going to try really hard to stop doing that and be happy with who I am.  That's what your 30's is supposed to be about anyway, right?
