So I just got back from this run. Not a long run. in fact I mapped it out on www.mapmyrun.com and it was a total of 2.3 miles. I haven't running a whole lot lately and I found my self digging quite deep to finish strong! I was exhausted!
I walked around my apartments to cool off....
but I couldn't.
I kept breathing hard, sweat poring down my face and back. (gross I know)
I stretched,
did some push ups and arm curls with the bungee rope that I stole from my mom...(sorry mom)
and I was starting to get tunnel vision, like I had been pushing my self for hours in blistering heat after drinking only a tsp of water!
but that didn't scare me, I probably was dehydrated, I wasn't worried I'd pass out or anything! in fact,
I felt alive.
and once I sat in the shower to cool down with cold water spraying in my face, my mind felt incredibly clear!
I don't know if it's because I haven't really pushed myself physically for a while, or because I was really dehydrated and my body was being shot some chemical trying to keep me from dying but I loved it!
I got out of the shower only moments ago and my mind is racing!
it's strange when you see the different ways that our bodies are connected to our minds and to our spirits and everything!
needless to say,
I'll be running more.
