Today as I begin this new blog, I have been on a journey, which has recently taken me 26.2 miles. I completed my first marathon. I did not run this marathon, I walked this marathon, and not at a very fast pace either. It took me 8hours 20 minutes to complete this marathon, but I did finish it, and that did give me some joy in making my goal.
But as I walked and the fast runners, and the not so fast runners went by me, telling me "Good job ladies", ladies being my workout partner Laurie and myself, I felt envious. In a good way, but none the less envious. I wanted to run, I so wanted to run, but I knew my body was not prepared, not trained for this feat, not light enough for this feat. I know that it is possible, but I will need to make the changes and put in the effort to make it possible.
So I began today looking for blogs about the subject. I typed in "Fat to 5k" and found a blog with this quote-"The only thing that stands between a person and what they want in life is the will to try...and the faith to believe it possible."
I know I have the will, well on most days, know I just need to dig deep and have the faith in myself to believe I can do it. We shall see what tomorrow brings.
