True Story

Yesterday I go into the Running Room at lunch to buy a sports bra. (I forgot mine at home, and didn't want to miss my workout)

I left the Running Room 10 mins later with a sports bra AND a group leader status. Looks like I'll be running the half afterall.

Tonight was the first run. 4k steady. My group wanted to be speed demons. I'm kind of the mean group leader in the sense that I run at the proper pace. If you want to follow the program and the pace you run with me, if you don't, I don't really give a shit. Bad attitude? Probably, but I'm not going to jump through hoops to keep everyone happy.

I had time to kill before the run, so I hit up step class. It was great. Sweaty and disgusting. But great.

I have WI tomorrow. Wish me luck!

Good for you!
I was the same way as clinic leader - this is what to do and if you don't it...well I am not your mom and you can live with the end results.
hardass? Whatever.....

You are the best kind of group leader I reckon!

Laura said...

That is great! What half are you training for? National Race Weekend? What do you need to be able to do in order to participate in the clinic?

Currently my plan is not to do a half till the Army run in Sept and do a 10K in May.

what are your thoughts?

Great job on the run and I am totally with you...don't run with a group if you aren't going to keep pace!! I laughed at your going to buy a sports bra at lunch...I forgot my running shoes one day - and really wanted to workout - so I went and bought a new pair!! A little extreme I know...but I needed them anyway! Good luck with you weigh in...I am sure you'll do great!

yay you on many accounts. I was all set to congratulate and be impressed with going to buy a bra when you forgot yours. No excuse to skip a workout! And then you go and take on this responsibility as well! Good for you!

Teresa said...

Have a great weigh in. Congrats on being the leader.

What's the point of joining a clinic if you aren't going to follow the leader? Silly people.

Good for you getting the gig!

Good luck today!

Sara said...
