SILVER LINING?

Third Monday of the week...

So, I THINK I am actually getting sick! If so, it is, unbelievably, the first time this running season! I can't believe I made it through the running season/all my big races cold free. But is is usually this time of year that I'm going to get sick if it's going to happen. I am a bit burned out this year and didn't sign up for a couple of races I always do in march, the Gate river Run in Jax, FL and the Excalibur 10 miler in Vero, FL. But, even if I am getting sick it is only Feb and I would be in between races. How cool is that? See, a silver lining.

Of course, now that I finally have a break in my schedule this week and was planning an awesome stadium workout it would appear that is on hold. That's ok, I guess. I could use the sleep. I'm so tired.

Well, I was looking at my medals hanging on my wall the other day and was, at the same time, talking to my mom about stress. Oddly, these two items were not related but I did wind up connecting them, lol.

The medals I haven't hung

, yet

It dawned on me that those medals represent more than personal accomplishments. They also represent points of stress relief. I have to admit, I feel so much better after I run especially when I'm stressed. It's not that the problems go away but somehow they aren't unbeatable obstacles, anymore... till right before the next run, lol.

I'm not really sure how many medals there are but I say it equals a lot of stress relief!

Well, I'm not feeling well. So, I'm gonna go...
