So today marked a good day even though I'm just halfway into it. Today is historic and as such I believe the positive way that I began the day will only foster better things for today.
I just thought to share with my Hive family that I jogged properly for the first time since the accident. I know it might not mean much to a lot of people, but it does to me especially looking back to where I was about a month ago.
I actually did not expect that I would come this far in so little time. I awoke with the intention of jogging with a friend who has been egging me on for some time, but as I laid on my bed, there were a million and one thoughts that were slowly edging towards excuses.
After about an hour of convincing myself on the importance of this particular exercise to my body fitness and recovery, I got ready at about 6:30-ish. I wasn't able to reach the distance or hit the pace I had previously become use to but I was amazed at how far I went.
I usually get itching initially while jogging especially if I haven't done it in a while, so I got that uncomfortable sensation. I even felt nauseous and thought I would hurl out my guts but I persevered. My friend was so much help as a jogging partner.
I must admit we walked along the way...speedwalked. And surprisingly, I played a little football for about 10 minutes.**smiles**
