Emotional Runner
Wednesday, 23 April 2008 - Written by Chrissie [profile]
Stress seems to play such a big role in my running. Some people say that they run to relieve stress. I can't seem to run when I feel it. Evenings in our home get stressful, the day is over before I am ready, there are tons of things still to get done, the house still needs picking up, my children need attention, my husband needs attention.... before I know it, it's 11:00 and I know I can't get up at 4:45am to run and function at the level I need to that day! Don't get me wrong, I love life and all of it's busy-ness. I just want to stop being such an emotional runner. People say, "just do it", "don't make excuses"... of course, I agree with that! But I use that motto for my whole life. I "just do it" all day, everyday. I feel like I cram 3 days of life into every 24 hours.
Well, regardless of this small "emotional" struggle. I love running and am running far more than I ever have in my life. That is worth something! Now I want to break into a new level of running. Maybe on... Read full entry

I can relate...well all except the husband and kid thing...but cramming 3 days into 1 day every day and it seems like noones ever happy...everyone acts like they get shortchanged for time with me..and they probably do...but i just got to realize that i'm doing the best i can...and focus on the things on the list i checked off, rather than all of the things i didn't get to....the running i do for my sanity...it's the 1 thing i do selfishly for me...i just wish 5:15 am wasn't so early in the morning..LOL....ttys

It felt great to run this morning. This is the feeling I have to remember on the hard days. When I miss running for a few consecutive days, I get a little intimidated about jumping back in. But its great to know that I CAN just jump back in. I don't have to work my way up in mileage, and I'm not starting all over. I'm at the point stamina-wise that I can pound out 4 or 5 miles no matter what. Very reassuring.
