Running. Again.

Jan 2013.   The Journey continues.    Running.      Again.     Tired of using the word Again.  I really want to type the word still. Or successful. Or goal achieved!  (ok - that's 2 words). But I guess it's better than done, or injured or I quit.

It feels so good to run.  I can physically feel the blood and oxygen forcing all the sludge and slowness out of my brain.  I have rapid fire thoughts and emotions while I run.  I wish I could stop and write them all down.    I can feel my lungs filling with each deep intake of air.  I can feel my arms pumping the air into my lungs.  I can feel muscles that I rarely use coming alive - the muscles you don't need when running around an Elementary school all day or carrying laundry to the basement.  I can feel my feet pounding to the beat of my newly made playlist, trying to keep up with the songs I knew would be a little faster than my comfortable pace.

I like all these feelings. I like writing the words still running. Still moving. Still getting stronger.  My Journey keeps evolving... becoming more complex as I go.  Running makes it easier - I need to remember that. As for today?  I ran, and it was good.
