Why? Because I'm not focusing on my pace at all. I'm running with a (slower) friend, just helping her get through the miles one by one. It's been such a revelation to finish a run and not feel bad because I'm slow...I just enjoy the moment of seeing my friend finish. I hope you can let go of what your perceived pace "should" be and just celebrate the fact that you set out to run, ran, and finished. That is a huge achievement right there, believe me!Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09268130692900152965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20595227.post-64109915519635690022015-08-14T08:18:07.354-05:002015-08-14T08:18:07.354-05:00I love cats!

Your cat looks like a sweetie!<br /><br />I find myself stressing about my pace and distance with running, and I finally decided to just run. Turning it into something I have to do in a certain speed or a certain distance was zapping the joy from it. I only feel like half a mile today? So be it! I want to run slow as a turtle? Go for it! I'm still running. I'm not training for the Olympics here. Maybe when I get more weight off and I need more of a challenge, I will push the pace and distance, but for now, I'm just proud that I'm running.MyStalkerIsFathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14557320550868027421noreply@blogger.com
