Rude awakening.

     So here is something I learned today. I really bit off more than I can chew at the moment. I tried to do a practice run with my buddy Brad at the gym. And I pretty much sucked wind the whole time and we / I didn't run that far. I have to admit this was more than a little disheartening. I'm not worried about the run on the Fourth. Its just a little bit more than a 5K, and I already did one of those. But I'm dreading the 10K I'm doing in October. I have got to kick a training program into gear here. While I have been doing fairly well with dieting I just gotta do better. Taking a suggestion from a friend and I'm going to start planning my menus for the week in advance. Keeping them healthy but still have some fun with them. Also I think I gotta cut the beer for a bit. This will be hard, I appreciate a good beer. But I really got to get going on this, October is not all that far away. I have a promise to keep here and I cant let people down. I think I went into this thinking that it was so much easier than it will be. I guess this is a good wake up call. Just feeling very daunted by what I have to do.
