This past year, I've pushed myself to spend more time running. I've never found running to be enjoyable. I get bored easily and lose focus after the first few minutes. I always thought people who ran marathons were crazy. I never understood the manpower and the will to run that far.
I actually participated in a couple of 5K runs this year. Granted, they were fun runs, but I started and I finished. This has completely changed my thoughts and opinions on running. Even though I feel like my legs are going to give out, and I could pass out, I feel that much better when I cross the finish line. I don't care about beating a record time. I'll never be the fastest but I can say I finished. It's an overwhelming feeling when you accomplish a goal that seems so hard to reach.
If you put your mind to it, you will conquer. I promise, I've been in your shoes. Here are some shots from my runs!
