The Return of Training

A couple weeks ago I started my training for my second half-marathon. I naively expected this go-around to be easier. I was exactly that. Naive. It has been SO difficult to find the motivation. I am not sure why. Still kind of processing that. But I do believe I need some encouragement. From people that love me. From supporters that support me. From other runners. Just need some encouragement. Running is something that I want to be a part of my lifestyle. Yes, I am running to raise more support for our family but at the same time I want to be healthy and active, not just for myself, but for my children. I can't figure out why those things aren't sure-fire motivators. I'll find it. I know I will. I just may need a little nudge this time around.

Here's the route I ran today. About 5.1 miles. It was a bit tough.
