I have a secret. Something that, if you knew me now you would never believe. Before I had kids, I hated running. Kind of ironic since I play soccer, but running just to run – not finding the love. I would play double header games, join any pick up game I could find and run with a ball forever, but something about just me, my thoughts and the open road was not inviting to me. Till one day, I made myself do it. Now, I can’t go a day without it.

I have never in my life felt comfortable running. As you can tell from my shape, it’s not anything I force myself to do. That said, late this last summer I did fall in love, again, with bicycle riding – something I used to do a LOT of when I was a kid.
It doesn’t take very long to start getting your legs back. It doesn’t take very long to start getting your wind back. It doesn’t take very long to begin to REALLY miss it on days when you can’t, for one reason or another, get out on the bike. Maybe, when Spring comes and there’s more consistent time on the bike, and the waistline begins to fall away, maybe then it will be time to try, once again, to take up running.
Maybe.
On the other hand, I’m so glad that YOU run, because it has you in MARVELOUS shape.
After a disastrous year on a Xcountry running team in high school, I turned my back on running. A decade and change later, I decided to give running another shot and haven’t stopped running since then.
Looking forward to meeting you at Blissdom
