Ngempelasonto edlule ngigijime umjaho wami wesihlanu wesiqingatha semarathon; kwakuyiSan Francisco Marathon, futhi ngalesi sikhathi ngase ngigcine sengizibheka njengomakadebona osemnkantshubomvu uma kuziwa kulezi zinto. Phela ngase ngike ngenza eminye imijaho emine onyakeni owodwa nohhafu – benginohlelo.

Uhlelo oluthiwe lubandakanya ukudla isidlo sakusihlwa se-pasta ngobusuku bangaphambilini, ukubeka izingubo zami nezinto engizidingayo (nginohlu lokuhlola oluyingxenye yemarathon yalokhu), ngilale kusenesikhathi, ngivuke ngesikhathi esithile, ngidle ibhulakufesi elifanayo ngaso sonke isikhathi, futhi ngithole emcimbini ngaphambi nje kokuba i-corral yami iqale (ngiyakuzonda ukulinda cishe ihora kuze kube yilapho i-corral yami "ehamba kancane" iqala-kungicindezela ngempela). Ngangivele ngihlelile ukubhucungwa kwami ​​kwangemuva komjaho wami ngohlelo lwami ngohlelo lokusebenza lwami lweZeel. Konke kwakusendaweni.

Njengoba kungenzeka uhlangane, ngazizwa nginjengompetha. Kangangoba akuzange kungiphathe kabi lapho uPopsugar engicela ukuthi ngithathe i-akhawunti ye-Snapchat futhi ngibheke ngaphakathi ku-half-marathon. "Ayikho inkinga!" Bengicabanga. "Ngikutholile ngokuphelele lokhu!"

Nokho, ukuzethemba ngokweqile akungisizanga kahle, ngoba ngempela ngangingenayo i-sh** yami ndawonye ngendlela engangicabanga ukuthi ngenza ngayo. Ngaphula umthetho wekhadinali, bafana. Ngikhohliwe. Ukuphuza. Amanzi. NGAKHOHLWA UKUPHUZA AMANZI.

Ngiyazi ungase ucabange, "Ukhohlwa kanjani ukuphuza amanzi?!" Futhi: "Wenziwa kanjani isilima kangaka ?!" Ngithembe, ngicabanga izinto ezifanayo ngami. Kodwa kwenzeka. Ngoba iyisisekelo futhi iyisisekelo, ayikho ohlwini lwami lokuhlola, futhi akuzange kuvele kimina (i-Snapchat kungenzeka noma ayizange ibe nendima kulokhu). Ngingumshumayeli we-hydration, futhi ngikhohliwe ukuphuza amanzi ngaphambi kokugijima amakhilomitha angu-13.1. I-WTF.

Njengoba ungacabanga, izinto azingihambelanga kahle. Umjaho uqobo wawusemuhle, futhi ngagcina ngithola i-PR (!!), kodwa isisu sami SANGIZONDA. Angikwazanga ukuya endlini yangasese ngaphambi kokuba ngiqale (ukwethusa), futhi cishe amamayela ayisishiyagalombili lapho ngithatha i-gel yami ethembekile ye-vanilla Honey Stinger, ngezwa isisu sicasukile siza. Ngaqala ukubamba izinkomishi ezimbili zamanzi kuzo zonke iziteshi zokuthela amanzi engangizibona, kodwa ayenganele.

Lonke usuku lwalukhungethwe yiminjunju yokukhubazeka kobuhlungu besisu nokucindezeleka kwamathumbu okungachazeki. Ngangikwazi ngisho nokudla kuze kuphele amahora, futhi lapho ngangikwazi, kwangilimaza isisu. Uma ucabanga ukuthi, "Whoa man, TMI, angidingi ukwazi ngamathumbu akho," nansi into: udinga ukwazi ukuthi kubi kangakanani ukuze ungenzi iphutha elifanayo.

Akudingekile ukusho, ngizobe ngibuyekeza lolo hlu lokuhlola. Kungenzeka kunoma ubani. Izinhlanga ziyacindezela, noma ngabe ukwenzile ngaphambilini, futhi noma ngubani angenza iphutha le-rookie. Kunokuhlela nokulungiselela okuningi okungena kule micimbi, ngakho-ke ngisho nezinto eziyisisekelo, eziyisisekelo zingangena emifantwini. . . kodwa ube nomthelela omkhulu.
