I’m sore today. The funny thing is, today was a walking day. Well, mostly walking, just a short pace of running, and a nice walk followed by a good stretch.
Mileage has increased. At the end of July my long run will pass marathon distance, so I don’t hit the wall in the actual marathon. I’m feeling a little less than passionate at the moment, so I’m basically blogging my accountability and reminders here. At least this way, you all can yell at me if I go off track. 🙂 Nice of me to drag you into this, isn’t it?
Why do I run?
– It knocks the crazy out
– Running clears my cobwebs
– I run so my children can see what determination looks like
– I run because cancer can kiss my ass
– I run because the sunrise is my own show
– I run because I feel connected to the universe
– Running lifts my spirit
– Every journey has its own thrill
– Every time I go out the door, there is something new
– I run for the bliss, even when I have to chase it
Okay. I feel better.
Happy Wednesday. Please go ahead and send over your St. Crispin’s Day speeches, if you feel so inclined.
Blessings to you all…
Running is great for clearing the head. I miss being able to run myself. =\
If you can’t run, swim! That’s always a good one, too. It’s more time consuming, since you have to schlep to a pool, but good meditation. Will you be able to run again someday?
I swim and love to! Probably not, but we’ll see. Breathing issues since the military. =|
I just now saw this! Respiratory issues are the pits. The pool is sort of a home for me, and it’s the best thing for your lungs. Something about water is so therapeutic, too.
I do love the water and love to swim! 🙂
