I'm currently training for a 5K run in November. First, let me say that I am not a runner. In fact, I hate exercising. But, lately I have had a switch flip in my brain for whatever reason and am looking at it differently. I have been wanting to workout; I actually am looking a little forward to it each day. On days I can't for whatever reason, I have been a little upset. It is becoming MY time. My time to think, to clear my head, to have uninterrupted me time, to pray, to cry, to smile, to reflect and most of all to be proud of what I am accomplishing in that time. Some days I show up and have a great work out, some days I show up and it isn't so great for whatever reason. The point is that I am showing up. I am trying and not giving up. Maybe I will keep this up forever, maybe I iwll hit my goal and never run again, maybe I won't hit my goal. I don't know. I'm not that concerned about it right now. I just love how it is transforming my brain and soul right now. For right now that is enough, for me that is what I need. Maybe it isn't about the working out so much, as the process you are going through while you complete the workout.
But, for now I'm showing up and being present in that time.
Have a beautiful day! Smiles, Jessica
