for the runners!

[lapintada2]

so i just came from a cross country invitational today at griffin park....and it made me wonder....

for all u distance runners...
what do u think about while ur running to help you keep it up and not start getting those bad thoughts like.."omg i need to stop!"..or "i cant do it"!

=)

i am not a runner i gotta say
but i'll say this for my friend who is hecka good xc runner.
she says just the feeling after the run is worth it.

Think about good things like if there is someone who you no can run faster than you make it a goal to get just as good as them!

I usually try to think of a song, or even a particular line of a song, and that usually helps me keep going. I also like listening to music when I run, it helps me to focus and keep running.

I just pray to God the whole way!

I know he is just a sprinter but have you seen what Bolt has done this week in the track and field world championship wow the man is fast!

Endurance running is tough- good luck and stay at it!

you can try finding a buddy to run with you, that way it'll be harder to give in to stopping

I run distance somewhat. Get the Nike + for an Ipod. It has alot of features that makes rumming like a video game to me. I love it. You can check it out on nikerunning.com.

Usually getting a good song stuck in my head goes a long way. Also, I just try to think that you're supposed to run after God as hard as you can... not that I sprint in the middle of a cross country run, but I try to remember that I should be pushing it pretty hard the entire race.

And the feeling when you finish is incredible, especially when you know you've run really well.

What kind of times do all you run? I'm assuming for a 5k race... just curious
