30 days: day 22 – The run that almost didn’t happen.

When I left my office, today’s run was not going to happen. I came home fully intending to lay down and crash for the night. But, my daughter wanted to go play volleyball, so instead of laying down I got dressed in my running gear, and we went out.

When you don’t feel like doing it, do it anyway!

I’m trying to slowly build up my mileage and my speed. Today’s run started with a warm up walk, a medium pace jog and ended with interval sprints.  Since my last few runs have been pain-free I felt like it I could try to get back to where I was when I started this journey.

With only a few days left in this challenge, I’m starting to consider what comes next.   While this challenge was all about determining how to get over an issue, accomplishing a goal has aways been my focus. When you are focusing on an outcome, achieving it seems doable.   One of the audiobooks that I listened to during the last 30 days suggests that achievement is a habit that needs to be practiced.   Many people that say they are not successful have not practiced achieving anything. Thomas Edison said, that he didn’t fail at creating the light bulb 100 times, He simply found 99 way that would not work. So if you want to achieve, you have to do something that will help you get there.
