Feeling discouraged

As I sit here typing on my new iPad, I am feeling a bit grouchy! But, my blog is about honesty so here is what you get!

Despite a lot of great runs, I am feeling very nervous about this marathon. My longest run has been an 18 miler which I completed two weeks ago. However last week's long run was a 12 miler and I felt horrible. In fact, I still don't feel recovered and a new pain has started out of my butt. (I know, right.) I have always said that running is hard for me. It is not natural for me. But now those little voices of "I can't" are creeping in. Hopefully other marathoners have had this too. Hopefully they were still successful.

Only 10 more weeks of training!
