day 97

I really, really, really didn't want to run today. But this morning I registered for this 5K and knew I needed to get my rear in gear. Since the 5K will be in the hill country I decided to focus on adding a good amount of incline while I ran today. Hopefully that will prepare me for race day.
I ended up going 2.62 miles. When Greg came in the room he found me laying on the floor dripping with sweat. I ran my tooshy off on those hills. As I told Greg all about my various inclines and speeds I was so pumped about my run. It was such a mental challenge today. The most amazing moment came when I literally felt everything click. My body went from tired & heavy to feeling completely aligned. I felt the shift. I could hear my body saying, "Ah, there it is" when I found my groove. It feels so good to be at this point of my running journey. I can only imagine what the next 268 days will bring!
Happy trails,
Jessy
