She looked at me with a look I can only describe as disdain, but with a professional attitude.
"How's the knee"
"They are a little sore."
She rolled her eyes at mem. "They? Great. Now its both of them. Have I mentioned you are stupid? What's with you guys?"
"I take it your husband is racing on a similar 4 week marathon plan? If I recall last year we both did pretty well with the little training we did."
"He better not be..." She started. "Yeah, because if he does race I'll have a pace bunny with the sign 'Idiots United meet here' out for both of you." And with that she slamed closed her file (as much as she could slam a paper file) and ushered me out the door.
Another marathon on 5 weeks of training? Only 4 runs at 20k? No problem. Why? All this "can't do attitide" around me has fired me up to proove them wrong.
Yeah, how's THAT for motivation? As most guys will confess to, I'll take what I can get.
