Lead Foot


Are there days when you feel like you are running with two lead feet? You can't pinpoint the problem but it all feels harder. My time was only about 5 seconds off of normal - not significant. But I just couldn't get my feet to fly this morning.

I thought it might be the book I was listening to, it has bogged down a bit, but that wasn't really it. This is my last day on my current job, definitely not it (I should be flying high if my feet were attached to my light heart!). Maybe worrying about kids (no), money (no), family health (a bit), or what to do with my life now (yeah, right)?

I usually hit my stride at mile number 3. I've warmed up and feel like I have woken up and can start moving my legs and feet as if I am really in charge. I love the feeling I get when I get to that, "Okay, let's kick it in gear.", moment in my run. That's when I get a little adrenaline rush and start smiling on the inside.

I think tomorrow it is going to have to be motivational music to jump start the morning. Get a little booty action into my run. Shake whatcha got and learn how to fly!
