Blissful Balance
Posted by Kym under Running
3 mile run today. 10.5 last week total. Tomorrow I’m going to swim. I was able to run halfway up the monster hill at the end of my run today. I count that as huge progress. I hate that fuckin hill. I am without my Garmin Forerunner as I shipped it back for them to figure out why the HRM isn’t working right and there is a certain freedom in not knowing how fast I am going. I have to really listen more to my body. It really is a skill I need to develop.
Did I tell you guys my husband bought me an Ipod Shuffle to celebrate me doing the Danskin Tri? I am listening to the Art of Happiness by the Dalai Lama. I love this audio book! Listening to it during my runs has been nothing short of transformative for me. It’s like yoga. Really centers me. It’s changing me. I love it. Highly recommend it. Especially if you are having any issues with any of your relationships in your life. I find listening to it while I sweat to be very cathartic!
Nothing much else going on right now. My life is blissfully balanced. Im enjoying the lack of drama for as long as it lasts!

I saw something today:
“Hills make you stronger. Headwinds make you mean.”
Perhaps, for you, it’s the other way around?

I’ll have to go check it out. Did you download it for the ipod? I’m much better than I was a month ago, but am still dealing with some stuff and really want to get rid of it. Argh.
So glad you’re in a good place.
Love, me
