I ran a little bit today, for about 15 minutes. Not straight--I did some walking in between short legs of jogging. But it felt really good. It's funny that I start feeling pangs of pain when I jog, and I wonder if that's normal. I wonder if I have to run through the pain and endure it. But, I actually really hate pain and try to avoid it as much as possible.
But running is helping me to feel balanced, energized, and feel a sense of liberation--freedom outside of my body, even. I'm not sure how I feel "outside of my body" when the activity that is creating this is a direct result of using my body, but maybe it's because I feel like I'm flying when I jog. I love that feeling.
