I’m sure some of you were worried for a while that I was a person that possessed multiple personalities or bi-polar disorder, but I assure you that I am just your typical hormonal
Anywhoozle.
After some recent soul searching and some extensive Reiki self-healings, I have come to determine that I love me now.
I haven’t been able to write that in a long time, but I am comfortable enough to let the world know – I love me. I am worth fulfilling any and all of my personal goals and dreams without the complications of other’s self doubts - PERIOD
I hope you understand.
I haven’t really done the things I told myself I would do this year, mainly because I have been consumed with family and career and even battled depression for a while, but all that is over. I CAN do it all. The only thing that has been missing is “my” time and that is changing – starting today. Oy!
I have never officially set down and wrote out a Bucket List of things I WILL do in my lifetime, but trust me – it is VERY LONG. Every time I fulfill a wish – I add two more to the bottom. (I’m badass like that…)
Somewhere on my unwritten list is to finish a Half-Marathon. I don’t wish to win or place or anything that extreme, but I would like to compete in and complete a Half Marathon.
I envision my family waiting at the finish line screaming my name beaming with pride as I look like a wounded zombie headed towards his prey looking for brains. Or maybe they will run with me part of the way…I don’t’ know, but this is about me now.
To go out and run/walk 5-6 miles is typical and something I know I can accomplish. But, the thought of run/walking over 13 miles is breathtaking. Literally! I have struggled with asthma my whole life and I haven’t master the breath control needed for long runs. I am scared.
But, I’ll have to get over it – and quickly!
Because today, I found the Half-Marathon training schedule that will fit my fitness and scheduling needs. It will be 14 weeks of dedicate workouts and following a stricter diet.
What I don’t have yet, is a Half-Marathon to go to...
It will have to be at the end of summer or late 3rd quarter in order for me to have the necessary time to complete my training. Wherever I decide to go, it will have to be somewhere where my family and I can travel to and see a little piece of the world we have never seen before. Any ideas?
Maybe I can erase two things off my Bucket List at once...hmmm?
Which means I’ll need to add four new dreams later…
