Getting ready for my first 10k race after graduating a few weeks ago- I changed the words to give me something to chant when I feel like giving up

At first I was afriad I was petrified

Thinking how am I going to run this far

And I've spent so many miles

 

Thinking how it's goin to hurt

And I grew strong

And I learned how to ignore the pain

And now your back

Go on now RUN another K

Pain p**s off now

You are NOT welcome anymore

Your the one who tried to hurt me with leg cramps

Do you think i'd crumble

 

Do you think I will lay down & die

Not I
