I think that I just needed a break after all that training for the half. I am now ready to turn it up and learn how to run just to run and not just to train for races. This has always been something that I've struggled with. I tend to sign up for a race and then train, train, train and once the race is over I slack until I have to start training for the next race.
This will be something that I will work on so I can become more of the runner that I want to be. I just want to run for the pure joy of running, because I really do love it.
So far this week I have run twice! So happy with myself. I did a treadmill run yesterday and then I braved the cold New England air for a run after work today. Also got to use my Garmin watch that was a Christmas gift and I loved it!
What are some of your tips to run and not just train for races?
