And lots of us - in running and in life - have run straight into it! Head On!!<br /><br />A wall is the point in a race (or life) where you're used up. You're offically done. You feel as if you are draining away into a little puddle on the ground. Your legs dont respond to the word "go" and You vow never, ever to do this again. <br /><br />Here are some tricks to use if the wall is coming right for you.......<br /><br /><span style="color:#cc33cc;">Keep going regardless</span><br />Promise yourself that, no matter what, you will press on, even if you are walking, crawling, or puttering. Stay on your feet. Eyes straight ahead. Move.<br /><br /><span style="color:#cc33cc;">Don't think</span><br /><span style="color:#000000;">Just go. Do not dwell on how overwelmingly awful you feel. Focus on the cheering crowds, your firiends and family waiting at the finish, the cool water (BEER) the trees.......anything positive.</span><br /><br /><span style="color:#cc33cc;">Try bribery</span><br />Tell yourself, "self, when I am done with this I am going to buy you a new fall outfit, a new pair of running shoes, a nice night out on the town, Whatever you want."<br /><br /><span style="color:#cc33cc;">Word Watch</span><br />Watch the negative words and thoughts. Think instead about all the successes you have had. How about all those hills you conquered? All those long workouts you endured? You are a great person. Relish those thoughts.<br /><br /><span style="color:#cc33cc;">Negotiate with yourself</span><br />Give yourself permission to simply go to the next water stop, or to the next milestone, or even just the end of the day. Keep repeating that strategy until you see the finish line. Just one more stop sign, I will make it to the next light post any short goal until you hit that finish line. <br /><br /><span style="color:#cc33cc;">YOU CAN DO IT! YOU ARE STRONG!</span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/141594842407102591-5178995221452504926?l=cantonclubbaltimorehalf.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Angiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13185979444717875347noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141594842407102591.post-91254919525451964082010-09-29T06:22:00.000-07:002010-09-29T06:36:49.383-07:00Hello Runners!<br /><br />Our run will be going through hills and flats!<br />We will start at the gym at 5:30 am - I know that is real early and I appreciate everyone agreeing on coming that early!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.runningmap.com/?id=224634">http://www.runningmap.com/?id=224634</a><br /><br />Gym - turn left towards the water to Washington Street<br />Up Washington, left on Wolfe<br />Wolfe - Right on Eastern<br />Eastern to Inner Harbour<br />All around Inner Harbour to Rusty Scupper<br />Follow Promenade all the way around until you get to Harbour View Towers<br />Right on Pierside/Cross Street<br />Cross Street - Left on Riverside<br />Riverside - Right on Fort Ave<br />Fort Ave - Right on Light to Inner Harbour<br />Inner Harbour to Pratt<br />Pratt to walking area before President street (we have run this before)<br />Follow promenade (pier 6 on right) to Aliceanna left<br />Aliceanna to Washington left<br />UP UP UP to Baltimore right<br />Down Baltimore<br />Baltimore - right Ellwood to water - make right to gym!<br />WE MADE IT!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/141594842407102591-9125491952545196408?l=cantonclubbaltimorehalf.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Angiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13185979444717875347noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141594842407102591.post-54600554496293591292010-09-22T07:47:00.000-07:002010-09-22T07:54:28.992-07:00Hello Runners!<br /><br />We will be doing our practice run on Saturday which we will be running part of the course.

Everyone did very well and I can see improvement already! Keep up the good work and remember to follow the schedule.<br /><br />We will be running to Patterson Park on Tuesday and will be running hills (no sprinting). <br /><br />FYI: I discussed with some of you on Saturday....I would like all of us to run in the Run to Remember 5 K on September 11th. It starts downtown and finishes at Federal Hill. Steve will drive us to the start, run the race and then run home. That should be around 7 or so miles, which we supposed to run. The cost is only $20 if you register before August 1st. You can register on the Charm City Run Web Site. <br /><br />Hope to see you all on Tuesday! Hydrate today! It is going to be hot.<br />Happy Running :)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/141594842407102591-912552423842716908?l=cantonclubbaltimorehalf.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Angiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13185979444717875347noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141594842407102591.post-73714267503949930222010-08-27T07:38:00.000-07:002010-08-27T07:49:57.544-07:00Hello Runners!!
