this running thing is so incredible for me! i think has helped me tremendously physically and mentally. it boosts up those natural happy pills so my mood is better. also it increases my cofidence and pride in myself. today i ran another 1×1 for a total of 2 miles today. i think i finally found my pace. the first 2 1×1 i was able to run with much more ease today so i challeneged myself with another. it's funny cuz it seems like all of a sudden i'm able to make a huge jump. this happened once before when i was trying to get all the way around the track. it's crazy how the body works! i am sooo f'ing fearless and so f'ing fabulous (my current mantra fearless and fabulous). i feel soo proud of myself for my effort in this new sporting venture. i've never been one to be into sports buuuttt i love running! i will run a marathon one day soon!! i am so very proud of myself and i know it really shows in my demeanor and mood. if i can continue this way then i will be able to soon be off my medz and manage my depression with talk therapy and exercise.
