I felt really tired today. My body was tired, my mind was tired…. life can be tough sometimes! ?
I had no desire for a run today despite my 25k that I scheduled a few days ago…. but that’s the same reason why I went out anyways! ?
You cannot schedule your life. Sometimes you need to be able to alther and adjust those expectations. The first miles were really shitty…. I felt like crap and I had no energy whatsoever. Than I reached the sea and things turned better directly! What a lovely evening indeed! ?
Yeah, I decided to take a different route from the usual one and I opted for a flat variant along the sea and around the Sandsjöbacka natural reserve. ??
Everything went great until the last 8k when I had to turn and run back home. The evening went dark in no time and the chilly wind started messing with my leds. I had to adapt again, slow down my pace and enjoy those tiny rain drops on my skin…. lovely! ?
No run is the same, you experience different emotions, the fitness level may vary from day to day, the elements have a direct impact on your body as well etc. When you adapt, accept the challenge and keep moving forward with a smile that you see the light even in the darkness…. sh*t, that was a biker with a huge headlamp!!! Whatever, you know what I mean! ???
I feel great now after 35k and a hot shower! ???
Have a nice evening! ?
