Just Beat It, Beat It, Beat It, Beat It...

Day 4 some more....

I'm taking the Michael Jackson's lyrics of "Just Beat It" totally out of context and using them to my advantage since I needed some encouragement.

Just Beat It, Beat It, Beat It, Beat It
No One Wants To Be Defeated
Showin' How Funky Strong Is Your Fight
It Doesn't Matter Who's Wrong Or Right
Just Beat It, Beat It
Just Beat It, Beat It
Just Beat It, Beat It
Just Beat It, Beat It  

Today has been the hardest day! I did not want to work out! I did not want to walk! But I went anyways....

Lap 7 I was tired..... Lap 18 I wanted to quit.... Lap 24 I WAS DONE! NO MORE! Until this song came on in my ears at that very moment! Lets just say I got pumped! I don't know if it was the beat, the music, the lyrics, or what, but I had a totally different attitude! I made it to lap 44.... then I was done! 2.75 miles in 43 minutes.   I'm happy I did it...I can't go back and say I didn't push myself hard that day because I didn't feel like it! My calf muscles think other wise...

Now its time to eat an apple, cause I know there are gallons upon gallons of ice cream a couple floors down and I'm liable to go take a spatula to one!
