Half The Fun of Holidays is the Looking Forward to and The Planning.
Even going somewhere close by can be fun.
Do you have something to look forward to?
Having something to look forward to is half the fun of doing things. I get excited about vacations to come. I plan and think of fun things I can do.
Running
I have loved to run since 1992. I did run before, but I wasn’t very good, and more importantly, I wasn’t having any fun.
I can’t remember why I joined a half marathon clinic at the YMCA in Vancouver, BC, but I showed up each week we increased our mileage.
There was something different about this class that appealed to me. I have always drawn outside the lines and love to try something different from the norm.
Most runners have a little OCD in their DNA.
They push and push and love trading stories of when they ran for so long and so hard they tore muscles, etc. They are proud of this. Yikes! That is definitely not me.
Personal Best (PB)
Most are always looking for a new personal best (PB) time. It is their most important thing. Not so much for me.
