I began my journey march 18, 2013 and to date I have lost 45 pounds.. This began as a journey to good health for me.. But has become so much more.. running is my therapy.. you and the road.. no one else in your head.. you can get all the stress out.. cry .. laugh.. what ever is needed...everything clears out and you get to just breath.... I hope you have a great day!!!!!!!!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15240994881375602128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2215634364170569580.post-7825730492231915552013-05-12T13:44:36.959-07:002013-05-12T13:44:36.959-07:00Thanks for the support!

I sometimes feel so very slow when I start to compare myself to others. But then I remind myself this is a race against myself and no one else. Great post!

I think it's human nature to compare to other people running is no different.<br /><br />I've learned to only compete with myself when it comes to running and root others on that are looking for encouragement.<br /><br />http://amplifytoday.com/health-and-fitness/runningAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01854386402176100178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2215634364170569580.post-58334299953965415182013-05-06T10:19:56.883-07:002013-05-06T10:19:56.883-07:00This is a great post, I'm a slow runner and ev...This is a great post, I'm a slow runner and even my current slowness is an improvement on fast slowness. It's all about pushing yourself and not judging yourself based on anyone else who has probably been training a lot longer. Noticing your own little improvements along the way is the best way to appreciate and celebrate your own accomplishments! Also this is a few years in advance but good luck at boston!

The thing I love about running is I feel like I'm only competing with myself. Every time I run, I feel good even if everyone else is faster than me. <br /><br />During the summer I often run at a local track and I love to see the people out there struggling to just walk one lap without sitting down. I always cheer them on because we could all so easily be home in front of the TV but we aren't.

And props to you for running a race in the rain, says a lot about your determination; running in the rain is it's own form of torture. <br />I enjoyed reading this and keep putting one foot in front of the other.Hubert Hixsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14560939645214613064noreply@blogger.com
