- Its getting easier
- my recovery time is getting shorter
- I want to run more
- I look forward to my next session
- I am starting to think of other ways in which i can en-corporate running into my life - e.g.. to run t my studio instead of ride, (but then I would miss out on my ride so that doesn't really work, but you get the idea)
And for the first time since I was a kid, I really like - dare I say it, am starting to love running.
so what is so different about running this time?
because really I have been trying to get to this place for years, and always failed.
its simple really - I finally took my own advice.
I set a goal
educated my self
and have taken steps to achieve that goal.
this running thing didn't just start a couple of weeks ago for me, really it started a couple of years ago when I started training clients here in Stockholm.
I specialise in functional training as a PT, and it has made a huge difference in my own training.
for years I have watched how my advice and programs have helped my clients but for whatever reason I just was not applying it to my own training.
well finally the penny dropped.
I started taking some active MSR sessions with my self looking to release the fascia in my lower legs so that I wouldn't suffer from compartment syndrome so much.
I started to work on my core and functional body, I started to build strength in my lower legs and consciously work on getting my legs back into balance.
and the result.
well I now run twice a week for an hour or so, and next week we move it up to 3 times a week.
and I couldn't be more excited.
so my lesson here is, (and I can hear my self saying this to just about every client I have ever had - sigh & slight head shake) DO THE FUCKING WORK JO & THE RESULTS WILL COME.
And the scary thing is I know this - I have done this with so many other things in my life. (insert smile here)
and now I am doing it with something that has been a stumbling block for over 20 years, and it feels awesome!
so keep training people.
good to go Jo
