Not even books on CD???? I could finish almost a whole book in 5+ hours. This saddens me to no END.
I am so glad you told us, Soror. That is so important to know.
I should have my whole
life together by the time I complete the FPM. I mean, if I have to be with me and my thoughts all the time? This should be great therapy. I read somewhere that some dude memorized the Declaration of Independence and recited it on his runs. I'm cool on that, lol, but I did wonder why he did it, and I guess now I kinda know.
Delph: Thanks, chica!

If you train with a program (like TNT) they won't let you train with music either so you can learn how to self-pace and get used to running and only having your mind to entertain you. Its wise to do this even if you train alone b/c if you've practiced for six months w/ headphones and then try to run race day w/o it will wig you out.
This was a big shock to me when I started training, so I thought I'd share.
