Today I had a great lesson on determination and mental toughnes…which I will explain throughout today’s log.

Special Endurance:
4x250m w/10 min

1-39.7
-now after seeing this time I got really ticked off at myself. I just thought “how do you expect to acheive your goals if you are slacking off like this” and then I went on and said some thigns to myself which weren’t nice and thought of all the things the kid that I want to beat said to me to try to bring me down, doing so really flared me up and I got pumped to run, I just thought to myself "if you want to become the f—ing best, then you gotta train like you are the motherf—ing best…So I was determined to run a 37 on my second run…

2-36.0
Thats right, I was so determined that I actually ran a second faster than what I wanted to. Lookign at the time above and this one, I KNEW for a fact then that I was lagging, so I couldn’t stop from here though…

3-36.9
I hit in the 36’s for the second time in a row, doing this led me to beleive that if I wouldn’t of started out today as a pussy, I could of hit 34-35…after this rep I was getting really dizzy and loving it!

4-38.0
Yea not as fast as I would like but I understood…I was almost fatiguing but I still didn’t use that as an excuse…i might as well punish myself tomorrow!

Bench Press-3x3 @ 175

great day today…i plan to build on this success and go from there.

today’s workout will be tomorrow because i hada colelge visit over at Marietta College.

also every who is a fan of D3 college track, look out ofr Marietta in the next few years, this program is legit and is on the rise. The coaches are enthusiastic and mean business and the program is solid, especially their sprints program, very for real and hardcore…they’ll especially be a force if i go there:D

but anyway, a solid program, i am seriously considering going there.

great day…I really ran off all that junk that I ate last week…I felt that nauseating(sp?) pan that youi get after running a lotand I welcomed it and loved it. Today was all about hard work

Heh, I thought you were listing your workouts for a few days.

You weren’t serious about Clerks 2 in '05 were you?

Yes I am…I got the Clerks 10th anniversery DVD for X-Mas and in the booklet that came with it he basically explained how he came up with clerks and then said he is coming out with Clekrs 2 in '05…the DVD also has the lost scene where they went INSIDE the funeral home (HILARIOUS!)

also the fourth season of Family Guy is coming out in 2005 and the new cartoon by the creators of family guy called American Dad is coming out in 2005 (i think?)
