May Race

6/18/2015

I’m breaking my routine.  I’ve always hunkered down and followed my routine, resisting anything that might cause me to deviate from the norm.  This usually means sitting on the couch and watching my shows.  Anything that I was obligated to do outside of this would give me anxiety.  I’d count down the minutes until I could get home and back on track.  Now, I enjoy doing different things.  And I don’t get upset, or thrown off if it’s not part of the routine.  Dinner in the middle of the week?  Sounds fantastic!  Moving my evening run to a morning run?  No problem!  It is actually a refreshing feeling to be free of my former self.  I never thought of myself as a high maintenance person, but now I’m seeing that on the inside, I really was high maintenance on myself.

I’ve been getting back into my running groove.  Slowly and surely, since injuring myself.  And then a bout of the stomach flu.  I’m not quite back to where I was, but I’m slowly getting there.  I realized, I didn’t post anything about my May race.  This one was a 5k that started at my old high school.  I ran it by myself, but my dad actually came up and watched me start and finish.  That was really special to me.  Then, we went for a huge breakfast.  I also recorded my personal best time in a race making it in under 28 minutes!  I have my June race this weekend.  It’s an obstacle course race that I’m doing with some friends.  It will be really fun and messy!

I wish I could make people "get it." Show them how if you work hard the promises come.

I agree, sober living. I keep telling myself that everyone progresses at a different rate and "gets it" in their own time. But sometimes I just want to shake people to make them realize that it is worth it. A million times over. Thanks for sharing!
