Run to Live, Live to Run

It takes time to fall in love with running again. It takes runs in the pouring rain, excited conversations with your teammates, running new courses, running familiar ones just for comfort. sometimes falling in love means removing yourself from the science of it all and just feeling it. feeling the run, the pain, the high that comes after. sometimes it means leaving the watch at home and forgetting about pace. falling in love again means forgiveness. sometimes you need to take a step back and realize you are exactly where you need to be. you have been in the darkness before, and you have no reason to fear anything anymore. 

I am so sick and tired of putting so much self-worth into my running

It’s so so liberating when you realize that you don’t have to

me, after laying in bed all day eating candy and doing absolutely nothing else: …. but i ran 10 miles today
