Taking Stock...........

So, I’ve been struggling a lot with long runs.  It’s really making me angry and worrisome.  And then, this morning while reading another blog, I was reminded of a few things. 

I’m lucky……I’m so lucky to even be able to do this.  There are many people who can’t physically cannot, but I can.  That’s something.

And just that, I can.  I can do whatever I set my mind to.  It may be difficult at times and it may not feel good all of the time, but I can indeed do it.  Just one foot in front of the other. 

I will meet my goals.  One way or another, come hell or high water, I will indeed meet my goals.  I’m just not a DNS or a DNF kind of girl.  It’s the not kind of role model I want to be in life.

I am so much stronger than I was a year ago.  Enough said.

So, I guess my lesson of the day is when life gets you down or you’re struggling, stop and take stock for a minute.  Look at where you are, where you’ve come from and remember that you are capable of so much more than you ever imagined!
