Tonight
I’m celebrating my own New Years....
That’s
right.... 4 nights early.....
Tomorrow
I will embark on my first timed adventure....
72
hours of unknown.....
I
may or may not be trained enough....
Leaning
more towards the may not....
I
am in no way in the best shape of my life....
But
I am drawing from something much deeper....
A
resolve to become better....
A
better version of who I am at this exact moment....
I’ve
been feeling this change coming for months now....
The
dissatisfaction with where my life was sitting currently.
The
need to grow....
To
become more...
Better...
To
laugh more...
To
love more...
To
bring joy to more people....
To
let go of the negativity that has found me in recent months...
The
weight that drags you down...
So....
This
year my resolutions are simple...
And
I’m on my way....
Starting
tomorrow...
I
resolve to become a better version of me...
To
love without restrictions...
To
support without wavering...
To
be a person worthy of trust...
To
respect and value those around me...
To
be open to learning...
To
continue to grow in my nutrition goals...
To
commit to my training plan currently mapped out...
And
to embrace the training and leadership of the many amazing runners who are so
willing to give guidance......
To be a better daughter and
sister....
And to live the year with no
regrets.
I believe 100% in my heart that this
best new life will start tomorrow...
That this race has brought me to
this moment....
Or maybe this moment has brought me
to this race....
And as I take my first steps....
Struggle through the walls... the
highs and lows....
Each breath I will dedicate to
building a better me....
To digging deep... moving forward
when I want to stop....
Embracing the moments of pain and
letting go when I need to...
To finding that inner calm... and
embracing all that is there...
The memories... the anger and
fears... the hurt and rejections...
To confront each head on... and burn
through them... releasing each burden...
Lightening my emotional load...
It is said to make a change you must
be open.... you must be willing...
You must be ready....
Hello Change.... I am waiting for
you.... I am ready!
