Trial of miles.......

Thats it, i have offically started the trial of miles, a concept so deep and physcological that it consumes some ppl.

The trial of miles........ as so expertly explaned and talked about in the bible known as "once a runner"

The simplicity of it seems easy, but the truth is its so much harder than you think......

The trial of miles is simply this: running, constantly, everyday, addain more and more miles to every week, after a few days you start to realize theresmuch more to it than running....... The first day you feel great, the run isnt too bad, your not sore afterwards, no pain, the next day and the next are about the same, but at about the fourth day you begin to feel it, your body's natural cry for help. By the fourth day you begin to feel achy when you run, and you start to feel sore after the run. you start running slower and you have to push your self contsantly to stay at the same pace.; but the end of the first week you begin to think" what the hell did i get myself into".
By the middle of the 2nd week or even the end of the first, you being to dread going out for your run, you keep finding ways to avoid it, or you try to substitute it for other less usefull excersises.
by now, all the other ppl that started have probably quite, but you keep pressing on...... and it never stops the trial continues for weeks, months, years, always never stopping. The fact is..... it can't stop once a runner always a runner, and one the trial starts, and once your determined to beat it.... it never stops, and its always there nagging at you.....


the truth is..... I'm on the trial of miles, and i feel the exact way as the description, i've started now, and i'll never get out, i want to succed so bad, but i find it harder and hared to make my self run now, but i do, theres a little nagging voice in my head telling me to run, and i go out, as much as i dreas it and i run, it may be terrible and i may feel like crap but i do it.

and i fell terrible when i'm dome, i'm as sore as hell,a nd i don't hink i'm ever going to run again, i lay awake at night, my legs throbbing, and my head drumming, i constantsly have to move now....... it hasnt even been that long and yet now when ever i think about a race, or a run a shot of adrenalin shoots through my body..... and as much as i hate it...... it drives me, i feel like if i don't get up and go for a ruyn then i'm not only failing myself, but i'm failing something that you only have one chance to prove yourself on. it may seem like alot of ppl ahve passed the trial of miles......... but its not as it seems, because the trial includes everything, diet, running, sleeping, social activities, you shoe condition, dr appts, body health, mental health, you have to truly give up every blockade thats stopping you, and let the running be what you are about, now it doesn't have to be the only thing you do, but it has to be the main thing...................
