For this blog assignment we had to choose a "pep talk" that has
appeared on a Halls cough drop wrapper and then write about how that "pep
talk" relates to our life. For my "pep talk" I chose Turn
“can do” into “can did." I chose this "pep talk"
because I feel it has a connection to something that is coming up in my
life.
During
the spring season I run track for Guilderland. I did this last year and am
planning on doing it again this year. Now track is most definitely not my
favorite sport. There is something about running in circles that just gets to
me. But even with my dislike of running in circle I still manage to have fun
with track and enjoy myself during the season. During track I really only run
one event, the 1600 or mile. I occasionally run the 800 but my main event is
the 1600. Last season I started of the season by running a 5:45 mile. This was
huge for me. I had never broken a six minute mile before and it was really
exciting to break it. Now I look back and think about running my fastest and
getting a 5:45. These days I am running a 5:45 mile split when I run a timed
two mile. This shows how much faster I have gotten but that is not the point of
this blog. The reason is chose the "pep talk" Turn
“can do” into “can did” for this blog is
because this year for track my goal is to break five minutes in the mile. This
is a huge goal for me and I really want to achieve it and I believe that I can
achieve it. Last year I ended track with a 5:17 mile time and this year I am a
much faster runner. I fully believe that I will be able to break five
easily but I have some doubts. But anyways I have been told by many people that
I will break five this track season and I am nervous. I really want to break
five and I know that I am capable of doing it I am just worried if I will break
it. So that is why I chose this "pep talk." Because I really want to
break five but the only way I will be able to break it will be to Turn
“can do” into “can did."
