Last Friday, 6 inches of fresh snow made running difficult. Mentally as well as physically. I just looked out the window and took a deep breath. I didn't want to put on the layers and struggle through the snow. I tried to tell myself I could just workout indoors. After a few minutes, I finally put on the running clothes and hit the snow covered road. I told myself, just 3 miles Kary. It will make you stronger. My loyal dog Sage was waiting for me outside. She is always ready to go. I usually take her 1-2 miles around the neighborhood and bring her home. Then, I continue the rest of my run. She is such a great running buddy. Never whines, great listener and she really knows how to potty in the woods.
All I could do was put one foot in front of the other. So, that's what I did.
Those of you that are enjoying running on dry trails, roads, etc.... No whining !(unless you're PMSing!)
Just get out there and take that first step. Dig deep, press on and success will come. Just believe!
Saturday, I decided to run the indoor track for 10 miles. The surface under my feet felt fabulous, but I get so bored running in circles. I'm very excited to get outside tomorrow and run in the snow. : ). -Kary
