I haven’t been running as much as I should so in the past few weeks I decided to start running more. This weekend I placed 3rd place in my age group and while it was a small local race and my time was not impressive, I still accomplished it and I am very proud of myself for pushing through and running the entire race without stopping.
Remember, I am not in
competition with anyone but myself so being better than others is not my
interest but rather being better than I was the day before is what
matters. I have to continue to push
through obstacles and get through anything that stands in the way of my
success, otherwise I will end up exactly where I was a few years ago and that
place I do not plan to visit ever again.
I did not want to get up to do this race but I am so glad that I did, its when you push through the challenging times that you shine the most or at least that is how it works for me. If you have never thought about weight lifting, 5K’s, crossfit or any fitness related activities go and try one, learn it and when you finish with the first one move to the next one.
Push yourself to be better but do it for you.
