A Poppin Rich Classic ā
(In the photo above is a screenshot of my first ever 5K and then my second ever 5K.) Also, Iāll be off all social media until the summer. Definitely going to miss keeping up with yāall, but gotta stay focused.
I remember showing up to this race thinking it was going to be a special day. I told DT who was pacing me that I wanted to go out at 6:00 flat and progress down from there. He looked at me and said, āI donāt know, man⦠itās pretty hot.ā Heat index was around 110 that day.
We hit mile 1 in 6:10, and I told him I was done and I meant actually done. He flipped and said, āNo dude, you are not stopping. I donāt care if you have to slow down youāre finishing.ā
I kept running, and honestly, I repeated āIām doneā the entire race. I crossed the line and I was finished. And hereās the real part: I was disappointed. I felt heavy, out of shape, and mad at myself because I thought I had more to give.
But I never stopped to think about this:
I shouldāve been thankful I had a friend who pushed me through something hard, who didnāt let me quit, even when I was locked in on the result instead of the journey.
Fast forward: I trained. Hard. And now, the pace I died at is a pace I can hold for an entire race. And even in my last race, when the suffering hit, I remembered this moment ā and it reminded me I always have more to give.
