Hi!,,,
WALK
I don’t know if for some of you is hard but for me was very challenging. Yesterday I adventure myself for a 2.00mi walk. I noticed in the beginning I started very confident but the more I walk, the more my impatient self got frustrated, knowing that I have walk just 2.00mi in the same time I run 3.50mi. I know I’m just recovering for my recent ankle injury but OMG is driving me nuts.
So there my mind goes during my walk:
“I want to run”
“I can not run”
” I might just run 0.25mi”
” No, no that might be too much for my ankle”
” Come on, just walk”
“Walk faster”
And etc…
I was fighting the fact that I’m just doing the most I can for the moment. I know that, but sometimes that frustrating thoughts win.
Is part of being human.
It going to take time, I just need to be more patient.
I also have a good goal for the rest of the year, is loss weight. Always my goal since the beginning was running, but I have been incorporating more stuff but my weight never was an issue or a problem or concern or something I have to worry about. But after the injury like I wrote in my previous post I lost myself a little too much and that was never the plan but now that I’m refocusing myself, is going to be a priority along with walking and getting myself back to running hopefully before the year-end.
Looking forward to write more about my journey.
Thanks for visiting!

Recovery is really tough both physically and mentally!
Yeah… it drains you sometimes… I just need to be more patient! Thanks for commenting!
I’m not patient at all, but it will be worth it:)
yeah patient is the key!
Sometimes its hard when recovering to remember that recovering takes time. What i use to tell myself during recovery is that everything happens for a reason and after this I will be stronger. And I also reminded myself to be thankful that I can recover, that I can do what I can currently do etc. Great job in not giving up!
Patient is the key. Thank you!
