no.more.excuses.

excuses. i have made many many in my life. excuses for why i can't do something, why i shouldn't do something, why i am not doing something. i get tired of tryin to think of an excuse so i just decided i wouldn't make any, anymore.

i was driving all day on tuesday. from jackson to biloxi to gautier to slidell. en route to slidell i was tired of sitting in my truck, i knew i needed to run but kept saying to myself - i can't run because there is no where to go. how silly. i was drivin down hwy 90 parallel to the beach. um, i love the beach. it's a perfect place to run. so i stopped at wendy's, changed in the bathroom, and had a nice 3.5 mile run down the beach boulevard. it was just fabulous.

same thing in new orleans for work. making excuse that i didn't have time, where would i run. how silly. my co-worker is training for a 1/2 marathon too, so we both needed to run. it's her first time to new orleans, so we laced up and i took her running through the city. we went all the way through the french market, around jackson square, down bourbon, up canal, down magazine and ended up on the riverwalk. a nice 4 miles.

i conquered my excuses this week. i have no excuse for making excuses anymore for the can'ts, shouldn'ts and won'ts.
