This morning I got up early for one of my most loved and most hated Saturday morning activities-running! My running buddies and I hibernated during the past few freezing weeks; today we strapped on our shoes and got moving! I loved and hated it!
I hate running because it hurts, getting up early to be in pain is craziness an makes me question my sanity. I love running because it is great therapy. Long talks with my buddies while we are pounding the pavement is a good way to start the day. There is nothing better than the rubbery feeling my legs get after a long run. I cut out a page from one of my magazines that says
'I keep running because it lets me be selfish. It is the one thing I do that's just for me, and nobody else. FYI, I never thought this being-selfish-thing could take so much discipline.'
My love for running continues to outweigh everything else at least for now! My next race is the Shamrock Shuffle is Chicago-strap of your shoes and come join us!
