A Rough One

Today was a rough one.  My run was rough - lungs burning, calves hurting, far more hills than I would have liked, and generally arduous.  Tougher, though, was the mental aspect.  When I run, I either process my thoughts or escape from them (I'm really not sure which yet - I've been thinking about that for a later blog post).  Today, though, I just couldn't get through (or around?) my thoughts durning my run, which was frustrating.  My disappointment, anger, and anxiety over events of the day wouldn't leave me.  Maybe I just needed to run longer, but I don't think my legs - or lungs - could have handled it!

Ah well, there's always the next run, right?

  1. Sounds like you need to run then write! :) I hear you on this post, though. Getting my head clear is a hard task for me. It makes both running and writing difficult. But keep doing both! You're doing great!
