Wow, so I hadn’t planned to take off this much time from
blogging. I went on vacation and ended up getting slammed in both my
professional and personal lives…
It’s been a struggle to get back into the swing of things.
It’s so easy to break up the everydaying of life with something exciting, but I
find that it’s more difficult to transition back to the same ol’, same ol’ afterwards.
Isn’t that strange? I thought that humans were creatures of habit. I like
consistency and planning things out. I thrive on knowing my next step in
whatever it is that I’m doing. I just can’t seem to get myself back on
schedule.
Anyway, the good news is that fall is here and the
temperatures have dropped along with the humidity, leaving me free to run
outside again. I’m looking forward to the races I have in the coming weeks. I
ran outside a few days last week and felt great, so I am hoping the races will
go well too. I’ve got a 10k at the end of this month so I’m trying to build my
stamina right now—longer runs with a consistent pace. I’m not worrying about
speed right now. My first goal, as always, is to finish the race. Other goals
come to mind on race day, usually: don’t finish last, finish before some other
person I’m pacing myself with… things like that.
My asthma is a little more under control, even though I
still struggle with some breathlessness. I’m planning to meet with an
allergist, though, to see if there are any triggers I should look out for.
Evidently ragweed is really bad right now. I did not know that…
