I run, therefore I rock!
Today I ran fourteen kilometers again. Last time I ran this distance for the first time, and was plagued by insecurities and doubts. But I made it, and found out that I indeed have nothing to fear but fear itself!
So today I went this distance again, knowing I could do it. And when I conquered mile after mile I couldn't help but feel really proud. Look at me! The girl who couldn't even run around the park during highschool without collapsing in a sweaty, teary heap of misery. Look at me running fourteen kilometers!
I just love running. It's such a surefire way to feel good about yourself.

Definitely something to be very very proud of! I wish I could still run...arthritis has knocked me to the ground. :o(
ReplyDeleteNow that's a long run!
ReplyDeleteWTG!
Good for you; you are so right - running really does build confidence and makes you feel like you have accomplished something great. And you have! 14 km is a long way to go...
ReplyDeleteCongrats! This is something to be really proud of. ;)
ReplyDeleteHave a great week.
Way to go Running Mommy! 14 km is really something. Congrats.
ReplyDeleteI so often wish I could run. I imagine it would be great to get lost in that endorphin rush.
ReplyDeleteFour precipitous deliveries, though, and I can't run anywhere that doesn't have portapotties every 1/4 mile.
Wow that is a good run I am working up to run a 5k, and for me that isn't easy. Good for you :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome!!!! Congrats on a new distance!
ReplyDeleteGOOD FOR YOU!!! What an accomplishment.
ReplyDeleteGood job!!! I need to get my endurance up so bad!
ReplyDeleteGood for you....you are right, it is a great feeling, especially when we think back to the 'first' runs and how difficult they were!
ReplyDeleteI find that this accomplished feeling carries over to all aspects of my life too!
Keep going...soon you'll be reporting even longer distances!
