It all began with the lockdown. As we entered a new world of everything closing around us, I thought deeply about how I could use this time. I wanted to work on something that I did have control over. I desired to use this new gift of time towards something beneficial.
I found happiness in running outside, it was therapeutic in so many ways. It was an activity that allowed me to appreciate the simple joy of moving my body and escaping those four walls.
Shortly after, I made a decision to start training for a HALF MARATHON. This was a huge commitment! A year before this, I could barely run two miles without panting. As a child, I dreaded running one mile in PE class. Now I was making a decision to voluntarily run 13.
During this time, I realized the power of making a decision. Things will happen, obstacles will come your way but you can see it through!
With practice and persistence, you can and will do it!
