Monday Motivation #10

Top of the Morning or Afternoon to all you fantastic Runner’s.  I had a Wonderful Weekend! 

I was able to get several closets cleaned out, mainly because Mr. Incredible was on a father/son trip to Vegas.  Love to clean and purge. 

I ran my second run on Sunday… Woo Hoo for me!  I ran for 25 minutes for a total of 2.5 miles.  Remember I am starting out slow and easy folks.  I did the 4:1 method and it seems to be working so far.  I warmed up with a 1 mile walk and good stretching before I started running.  And, ended with a .5 cool down walk and of course more stretching.   And to liven things up I did 5 push-ups and 25 squats.

I cannot tell you how great it feels to run again.  Oh, yes I can because you so get it.  Just after a couple of runs I feel myself coming back.  Stress and tension are disappearing.  And I am not ashamed to say that I am Happier when I run!

When I finish a run, every part of me is smiling.

I like running because it's a challenge.  If you run hard, there's the pain - and you've got to work your way through the pain.  You know, lately it seems all you hear is? Don't overdo it' and? Don't push yourself.' Well, I think that's a lot of bull.  If you push the human body, it will respond."
