Living in the Past


I ran again today. Just 3k, but what a lesson. I have not run for over two months now. In my mind the goal of an easy 3k in 21 minutes or so should have been quite realistic... but I have been "living in the past". Thinking that running today, would be the same as the last time I ran.

I gassed out early, and did lots of "run-walk". Results were thouroughly unspectacular (time 25.03 minutes).

I wonder if I am "living in the past" is some of the spiritual issues of my life. Or is my training and stretching going forward. It would be dangerous to think I was in one place and find that I'm really not there any more.

More to follow. I think I'm back on the track to get running again.
