It’s been 7 years since I laced up for a distance run. Today marked the beginning, Ground Zero.
The thing about distance running after a break is that you start all over again from scratch. 😬
I’m not afraid to start over; I’ve done it countless times throughout various phases of my life.
So, when asked how it was, the lines blur between “What on earth are you doing? aka WTF Girl and “It’s a great time to prioritize fitness and manage stress again.” But Donna, “Did you die?” No, I’m still here to fight another day. 😆
Armed with my new Hoka Rincons (or Rocket Fuel, as I like to call them) and sheer determination, I embarked on this journey once more. There’s nothing to lose but a few weekday desk job and weekend vino indulgences that have added to the abundance I’ve gained over the years. 😆
