The little things
Thursday, 24 April 2008 - Written by Coy [profile]
I'm just getting back to running after almost a 5 week layoff..needless to say I was a basketcase the whole time...My first 2 days were slow and painful. It seems I've lost a good part of my cardio and my stride doesn't feel quite right. But, you know those 2 days were like being in paradise. I love everything about running, especially running with the group. I even love the blisters I get on my feet. I love the diet, the glide, the getting up in the wee hours of the morning to meet with other insane people who love to run as well. I love the feeling in my lungs that tells me I better stop, and the fever in my head that doesn't let me. I love my crazy team mates that no matter how poorly I do tell me how great I'm doing. I love the hurts I get after the run, and the ibuprofen I take for it. I love the medallions hanging on my wall, and the possibility for future ones. I love El Guapo, but mostly I love having another opportunity to run again!!!

It's moments lime that we all need to lock away in our memories for those moments we we are feeling beaten. Nothing physically changed between when you met those ladies and when you passed them. It was PURELY MENTAL. Being mentally prepared is so important.
