Over the last 24 hours I have been so humbled by the outpouring of support from my family and friends. From Facebook inbox messages to emails to phone calls, I have received so much love and support on my new journey and I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart to all those who have read my post and reached out to me. Sending so much love right back at you!
So, Day 1.
I woke up this morning lethargic and uninspired to go out into the dampness and darkness for my first morning run. I could even hear the ocean “breeze” against the outside of the bedroom wall. Great. Rain, heavy winds and darkness. I stumbled around my room putting together the pieces of my running outfit and soon enough I was out the door ready to take on DAY1.
As I ran down the hill to the near-by beach, the sun had already started to peak out and the rain had stopped. As I was finding my pace, the scents of spring blossoms and the cool after-rain freshness lingered in the air and filled my lungs invigorating me. By the time my sneakers took to the sand, I was already lost in a blissful moment of freedom and strength. I felt like I could conquer the world at that moment, if only you asked me to.
When I got home, I didn’t drink my usual cup o’ joe, instead I opted for a fruit filled smoothie and was on my way to work feeling in control and stress free.
Up next?
