nobody supports you like a social media running friend you’ve never met

I was going to spend $150 on an AICPA Construction Accounting guide so I could start studying for the CFMA exam / get a little more education on the best way to approach my job…

Instead, I spent it on the Galloway Customized Training Plan.

Priorities.

It’s six months long, which will get me through Dopey… and since Galloway developed the Dopey training plan, I figured it was worth it in order to get feedback and some training help.

Despite facing down the fact that not only am I running my first MARATHON, I’m going to be doing it after three days of running other races, I’m still having problems with motivation. I’m in a lot of running clubs online - tried an IRL one, but the anxiety killed me - and some of the support I’ve been getting is overwhelming. But it’s not enough to get me going consistently.

Which (duh) is a huge problem.

I’m entering the final weekend of the Battle of the Fandoms Final and team PewPew is in second place. I missed two days (a total of six pledged miles) and I’ve pledged to do six today. I’m aiming to cap once I get off the fucking couch. I’m going to try and cap tomorrow, too. If I pull that off, I’ll have capped three times this Racery… one more than during Quidditch, and two in a row.

I’m either going to kill myself or I’m going to survive.

I’m not sure which, but it will be interesting to find out.
