it was misting rain this morning as i drove jackson to school...i had my new mizunos on and the usual apparel that go hand in hand with my shoes, the temperature was nice but lately it seems like i just need a little something to make me stay indoors
the mist slacked off a bit as i drove into the parking lot at my nearby park/track...so what, i'll get a little wet
i grabbed my faithful ipod and away i went
just over 3 miles in 31 minutes...i even sprinted the last quarter mile, and i NEVER sprint anywhere
the sweat was pouring down my face and back...made for a good feeling though, i was glad to be back in the game
one of the many reasons why i run
i took about a 5 month hiatus and i honestly missed running, not only could i tell it physcially...boo! but time spent with my girlfriends were something i looked forward to
running is something i do for me.
i run for my health
i run for my appearance, sounds vain...i know
i run for my sanity, and trust me...it works wonders
i run for the feeling of accomplishment...3 miles or 13.1, it's still accomplishment
i run because i can
this was the Snickers Half Marathon, Albany Ga last year...just after my finish, my knee was absolutely killing me due to an overuse injury, and i could barely walk back to the car! But after a day or 2 of much needed rest, i couldn't wait to do it again
April 22 is my next half marathon, number 3...and I CAN'T WAIT
phew
