50 miles running this weekend.. done

 

Ever since my 50 km run in December. I wondered what would it feel like if it were miles not kilometers..

 

What would changing the units feel like knowing it’s more mileage…

 

(And having just turned 50, I thought it appropriate to experience it)

 

Felt great…

 

Pushed past the boredom, the chattery mind, the feelings of doubt, self judgments…. kept going

 

Felt almost zen like.

 

No videos, no music, no podcasts… just me and me….

 

The feeling is insane when I got to a full Marathon distance only to almost double it.

 

Last weekend ran 36 miles.. this was an upgrade

It was odd to know that only after a full Marathon that training for an ultra marathon can begin…

 

Mind, heart, body, soul as one…

 

Whether we are running away or running towards something or someone…it is only the mind that moves.. for truly the heart is still in a state of love

………….

I love you
