Goal Crusher!

IMG_3005Well it’s a start

Just wanted to briefly check in and report that last week I did in fact run on three separate occasions.  Once on the treadmill at work and twice on the road.  I can tell you it felt good to get the blood flowing again albeit at a slow pace.

This week I will be upping the distance to a mile and a half at a clip.  I feel its important to be realistic and not compare myself to my 18-year-old or even 30-year-old self.  Were I to try to do too much or go too fast I could either hurt something or sabotage my progress because it would take longer than usual to recover.

I’m not gonna lie I am pretty pleased with myself.  As I type this I am rehydrating after a 1.5 mile jog through my neighborhood.  Maybe its just the endorphins.  Have a good night and God Bless!

P.S.  My wife and I will be doing our second Whole30 the month of September.  If its something you would like to try check it out.  There is a list serve you can join for #SeptemberWhole30

“Turn your burdens over to the LORD, and he will take care of you. He will never let the righteous person stumble.”

Psalms 55:22 GW
