More please!

This ramping up stuff is difficult. Especially when the weather isn't the best or you have to run at a time of day you're not used to (and don't particularly like). I've been trying to get myself to run longer distances and more often. I've managed to up the frequency without too much ado. However, getting myself to add an extra mile on has been difficult. When I get close to the point where I usually stop and I've already sweated off a couple of pounds due to the humidity I can easily talk myself out of continuing on. But it's gotta happen eventually and I'd rather increase my distance a little bit here and there now than wait until I start training and then I have to do it all at once. So I guess I'm just going to have to stop whining about it and (to quote Nike) just do it. While that makes for a great motto, it's easier said than done.
