Finding Your Sweet Spot
In addition to yesterday's post, when I started running I had to find the right speed. If you run with the throttle wide open, you will tire out very quickly.
You have to find the balance where you are breathing normally and your body just glides along the path. Its not too fast, and its not too slow. I always have that extra burst of energy for the last lap to get faster right before the finish line.
There was a moment in the process when I became fully in the moment, one foot in front of the other, one step at a time. This moment is all I have and I choose to live it like this.
And my earbuds Rock the entire time!
Also I started getting these blisters or burned areas of skin right under my arm on the right side. On the left is where I keep my Mp3 player with an armband. Those rubbing burns on the right were killing me, hurt when I would finish running. So I took an old fluffy sock and cut the top out of it and made an arm band that would fit around my upper arm. Now ...no more arm burns.
IT'S A GOOD THING!
