Embracing The Changes In Life
Someone recently asked me about my running and how I currently feel about it. True, I'm not running 5 days per week as I have in the past. I'm not even running my usual 3. I think my new norm for awhile (maybe forever) might be 2 days a week.
How do I feel about it? I feel liberated. I feel like stepping outside of the model of runner to something bigger. Because I've said it before, and I will say it again, I am more than just a runner.
As I grow older with my family, I realize that life is constantly changing. I am constantly changing. And learning to embrace the change definitely makes for an easier transition. For probably the first time in my life, I am

Good luck on your 10K!
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I are training now/again for the Hershey Half Marathon in Oct. We are in the relay which amounts to each of us running basically a 10K. I'm so far behind where I was this same time last year. I'm getting discouraged and worried that I won't be able to do the HHM a second time.
I hope you reach your goal this weekend. Run well!
I also signed up for the Hershey Half - what was I thinking! My goal is not to get picked up by the bus since there is a time limit this year. I've yet to do a half - this should be interesting :)
ReplyDeleteI hear ya on the not being where you were last year. Hang in there and keep at it...
