72 hours of resolutions....


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!
