Not gonna lie — today’s run was a challenge. Some days are just harder than others, but through sheer determination and mental gymnastics I met my goal of 6 miles. Feeling daunted by the idea of 13. #lookingformyhappyplace #obligatorytrainingpost #halfmarathonvirgin #betterthanyesterday

Not gonna lie — today’s run was a challenge. But through sheer grit and mental gymnastics I made my goal of 6 miles. Some days are just harder than others, and 13 miles is a little scary. But I have time and can sleep in tomorrow. All’s good. #obligatorytrainingpost #halfmarathonvirgin #betterthanyesterday

Thanks, Slacker radio, for sharing what Olympic athletes are listening to and introducing Jorge (and therefore me) to “Whatever It Takes” by Imagine Dragons. Energy and joy — that’s what I need more of on my playlist (and in my life)! Open to 🎶 suggestions if anyone has any. New shoes also get an emphatic 2 thumbs up. #halfmarathonvirgin #obligatorytrainingpost
