I think I can.. I think I can...

LOL -- ya'll are much more positive than me!! I say "You're not stopping stupid until the odometer gets to ##!!" (however many miles I've set out to accomplish). If the "You can go home" demon attacks, I just tell it where it can get off at. I must be violent!!

I get a little nicer to myself at the very end (i.e. about 4 miles or less to go) and say stuff like "This is nothing!! You're there in no time -- think of how far you've come!" or "Do you want to feel good because you made your distance or do you want to say something weenie like 'I stopped 2 miles short'? "
