Don't be so hard on yourself! You haven't been able to train as much lately, but not because you're too lazy or you don't want to - you have a valid excuse. I know you can turn it around! Great job finishing.
I second what Ariel said!
The good races feel even better when they happen, because we've all been in situations where we didn't have a great race. The thing to remember is that you finished when it was hard to finish...and that's sometimes more of a feat than when you finish a race and it feels easy.
I had one "DNS" this year and it still bugs me that I didn't just go do it no matter the outcome.
But you started it and finished it and that's pretty cool.
But vent away anytime you need to
Thanks for the words of encouragement. I'm happy that I was able to finish and sometimes you need the bad times to help instigate action to make good times happen in the future. I'm re-energized, so maybe this will all be a good thing.
