D= 3.46 mi T=36m57s
Today marks another day with another goal. What makes this day different is that I will follow through. Starting this very day I will log my workouts, distance, duration, thoughts, how it went etc. Why? Simple. I want to track my own progress and hold myself accountable for the sake of having integrity with my goals. Failure is not an option, but even more, not following through.
Today was a light jog, and a longer distance than I might ordinarily want to do. You see, I was not a runner. I always wanted to be, but I never was. I am now. But more over, I am an athlete. Not just someone who talks about the things they have done in the past, but I will keep talking about the things I do currently. I thought about this while moving my feet one foot in front of the other. And yes, it was on my run that I decided to start this website. (http://www.race2presence.com) It is my goal to create a clearing for my mind to work or sometimes to not work, and instead rest.
The idea behind the site name is 1. about be present in what I do and what I say I am going to do but also 2. a place where I can use my athletic goals to raise money and awareness to causes I believe in. And other times just do an event or ride or run because I feel like it and for not greater purpose than that.
I invite you all (anyone who reads or follows) to also hold me accountable for following through on my word. We all need a friendly reminder sometimes when we lose our way, and support when we are begin to fall. I invite your support. Thanks so much!
