It would be best to start. Amber
Actually this whole blog will be written by me...unless Ashley gets some kind of inspiration to start running...or at least to make fun of me! :D haha jk.
I've been running for 3 years and I just basically want to start logging in my runs, to keep track of my progress.A completely selfish blog so no worries if you don't read any further!
April 2, 2006: 9.5km in 50 minutes
I have no idea why but this was one of the easiest long runs I've had in a long time. By myself...no mp3 player...running in the back roads at sunset. sigh! So freaking relaxing. I was worried because I had been drinking coffee all day and absolutely no water so I thought I would have cramps for sure after the first 5km. The wind wasn't even bad when going against it. After doing the back roads I started into town. I always do the town part last because it's the busiest and if my form/speed starts to fail then I at least have my pride to motivate me to keep going!
I day dreamed a lot. Nothing really deep or interesting to report. At first I went through the mental list of everything I had to get done before the day is over...but by the time I get my rhythm...everything else has melted away. Normally this is my favorite time to converse with God about all the rediculous things that are plaguing my heart...things that I am embarressed to care about usually. Freedom of thought between me and my Maker. But not this run. It was a mindless run with nothing accomplished.
I think I'm going to blog 2 paragraphs everytime I run...one for the physical and one for the mental/spritual. Those are the areas that seem to be affected the most by this seeminly rediculous pastime.
