On the run..

On the run.

With me being a creature of habit and sticking to the same thing over and over this my friends is

the street I run on as often as possible. I have been really trying and succeeding ( I think)

in following through on the training for the 50k.

I am following an app that I found on my I phone called

The 50k Coach. by running method

I love that I found some app on my phone that tells me what to do.

So cool.

I haven't been as excited about going out and running the last couple of times but a

good friend told me not to think about the before part of going out to run.

Just get your stuff ready and get up and do it.

So I did and I stopped worrying about how fast I was going

I stopped comparing myself to other runners who kick ass.

I stopped thinking about all the junk that holds me back from enjoying my time

by myself doing what I love.

It takes me about 15 min to let go and just start being really present in that moment.

sometimes I just seem to stop thinking but the more I practice letting go the easier it becomes.

I started doing that same thing with my journals too. I try to let my brain just write and try not to analyze or think about it. I am really surprised at the stuff I write.

So my dear friends this year my focus will be on finishing my first 50k.

I have a feeling or maybe its hope that doing this will be a total life changing experience

just like running a marathon. The clarity that comes from running a really long way is worth the pain the effort the sweat .. I actually feel God is right there along side me and were having a great time..

Have a great Monday
