Gosh, why do I hate these dang 2-mile time trials. Maybe it is because I try too hard. I looked back to last year and I ran it in 15:13. This year I did it in 15:46. It’s so much fun getting older and slower. Oh well suck it up “old man”, and keep on plugging – one foot in front of the other. Maybe if I just lose a bit of weight I’ll speed up – yeah right, I’m such a weirdo thinking that way. I just need to accept myself as I am and what I can do and move ahead.
