The LONG run. Although I fear that I will come to hate this day, today went remarkably well, running wise that is. This truly is becoming a journey into myself and figuring out who I really am. All of my prior runs have been completed in the early AM which means that there are very few people out and about. I would drag myself out of bed, throw on a sweat shirt and pants, and hit the road. I realized, today, that apparently this early AM run is important to me and how low my self image really is...
My wonderful Hubby took morning duty with Little Bit and let me sleep in for a while. Heaven I tell you :) Anyway, this meant that my run was planned during the hub bub of the day which I thought nothing about. When it came time to run, I freaked. I must have tried on about 6 outfits before finally deciding on one. I was terrified of running in front of people, terrified of how I would look, and terrified of what they thought of me. Who is this person in the mirror freaking out over this? I finally got a grip and headed out the door, and guess what? The world did not come crashing down. I ended up feeling the best by the end of this run than I have to date. One mental hurdle down; however, I feel that there will be many more to come.
Total Time: 56 minutes / 4 mile run
