I've had those moments where I think, 'oh bag it' then know that I will be disappointed that I have to try and then actually pull it off. I think that's just as much of an accomplishment as pushing yourself through the run! Also love the older girls chatting w/ you after about what you could do differently. LOVE IT!<br /><br />on the P90x.. Same thing for me. I mostly focus on doing the three strength workouts.. figure I do plenty of cardio... though the plyo is good. :) I keep telling myself I'm going to get up at 6a and do it... but I really detest the a.m. :D I REALLY need to focus on the ab stuff. :D I think I'm going to try to get up and at least do ABS.. 20 mins. I can do that.. then maybe do Core Syn every now and then.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05090547844237303579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1733555150397662404.post-90105607809666383162010-04-06T11:44:27.542-07:002010-04-06T11:44:27.542-07:00Congrats on the race.
