For the past three months I have been training for a half-marathon.  Impressed, are you?  Don't be.  I use the term "training" very loosely.  The first month went incredibly well: calendar on the fridge, boxes to check when assigned workout was completed (and most were).  And then something happened.  Partly was that I got a bad case of allergies or cold or something, but that's no excuse!  So needless to say, I have reduced my expectation to a 10K...hey, it's still over 6 miles...and my training is now only mental.  I tell myself everyday, "Don't worry.  You won't die.  It's not like you have to run the whole thing.  Completion is the goal."
That's right ladies and gents.  I have adequately prepared myself for a substandard performance. 
Cowtown, here I come!
