Boston Sucked 🥲

I should have followed my program ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ I ran the Boston Marathon yesterday and it SUCKED! I had my worst time in over a decade for a marathon and I honestly can't stop thinking about it! I trained, I prepped my body all last week to be in peak performance shape, I felt good in the hours leading up to the race. I started off VERY strong and steady.... but I crashed (and hard!) at mile 16. I was on pace (7:15/mile) at the halfway point for a 3:10 finish! That would have been amazing! However, after 4 hills, my legs fatigued, my pace slowed, and I started spasming with 4 miles to go. After awhile, I had to start walking instead. I lightly jogged the last 1.2 miles to finish. Ouch. I was defeated, but I made it to the end. I finished in 3:44 (8 1/2 minute per mile pace), placing 13,010 overall out of some of the top 25,500 runners in the world. This is not how I planned for things to go. After all, I am a very dedicated runner and I did everything right! Or, did I? As I reflected yesterday on why these cramps happened, I thought back to the long runs I trained with leading up to race day. I was suppose to take them REALLY slow, like 2 minutes slower than my regular pace. Somedays I did that, and others I ran fast to get them done and get home to start my day. I didn't follow my program. And, I didn't do as well as I could of because of it! We hire coaches for a reason - they are professionals who provide us with the tools and strategies for success. Being an educator and coach myself, HOW did I screw that up? No one is perfect. So, next time I am going to follow the plan and trust the expert advice DESPITE what I want to do or what my mind to pulling me to do. Lesson learned. All the best to you! Chris [CASHFLOW CALCULATOR]( [INFINITE BANKING]( [CASHFLOW CONSULTING]( [Facebook]( [Instagram]( [Youtube]( Sent to: {EMAIL} [Unsubscribe]( Money Ripples, 224 S Main St #147 , Springville, Utah 84663, United States
