sooo today was the first day of my new focused working out
after a relaxing 2 weeks off i determined i feel so much better when i am running and i sleep better and all the other wonderful benefits so today i woke up at 5:40 ish and I got ready
the first 10 minutes SUCKED-i ran through some grass and rolled my ankle and almost wiped out but had to keep going because people were looking
then as i got to my halfway point i started psyching myself out like-i'll just walk the rest or i'll walk home
BUT i kept going-my pace was very slow very geriatric BUT despite all things in my heads saying stop and cut it short
i did my whole 30 minute run and i got back home and felt great
i may not be excited during the first 15 minutes of my run but the downward part-the last leg-I am feeling confident and so glad that i went
and as i sit at my desk now i am already excited to go tomorrow-i know sad sad-but i feel better-my lungs feel open now i feel amazing and on top of the world
plus the running first woke me up-so i had the energy to shave my legs this morning and look pretty presentable for work-so wish me luck 2 more days and then a break and then my saturday sunday run
hopefully by the weekend my pace will pick up and sunday the plan is to run and then get back and go to church
also sunday while being a bedside baptist and no im not proud but i watched my favorite joel osteen and the message was losing your critical spirit and i know often i can be critical under the guise of humor BUT i have decided to cut back and try to cut out my unhelpful thoughts and ideas and focus on me and making me a better person, a nicer person, a better daughter, a better friend, a better mate!!
soo wish me luck-in my running and being a better person!!!
