This is all i've got so far

The Sixth Mile

Heavy breathing, sweat dripping ,heart pounding, you feel like you are about to die but you can’t give up now, not when you’ve come this far.



i'm having writers block.

  1. I like the title! How about if you go back and write about joining the team and your first training sessions--try a chronological approach first. Show us what a work-out was like at the beginning, maybe your first race, pick a few memorable snapshots from your season. Describe running/walking/gaspng through the streets and woods, wherever your team ran. Then you can move things around to start in middle of that first "running-the-whole-way" race. Don't feel like it has to come out "right" the first time around--just get some details down. Look at Anne Lamott's essay "shitty first drafts" in the text for inspiration!!
