The 30-day break from running has morphed into 2-3 years. i never wrote the date down because it wasn’t supposed to be a significant gap.
Continuous foot pain. At any moment. For any reason. Its cause never uncovered. So all i could do was move on.
The biking and walking to the gym have been my cardio supplements without running.
And then we returned from a family trip to Glacier National Park.
We began running one-mailbox-a-day a few days later on August 6, 2018. This is a significant date because all three of us began together – with a dream of lifetime fitness.
Our run this morning was about 1.25 miles at a slow pace. But we are out the door long before the sun is up. That is a miracle, a blessing.
For weeks now, i haven’t detected a hint of pain.

After almost two years intentional rest from running (1st break since 1999) we (Family) began running one mailbox a day last Monday. Tomorrow, it’s two mailboxes a day – Monday through Friday.
Mailboxes are 100 meters apart in our neighborhood.
It will take one month to run the equivalent on one lap around a high school track.
Have always believed the reason most people say they don’t like running is because they do too much too soon, and they quit before they even get started.
Our pace is slower than walking by the way.
Finally, everyone knows that running (or walking, or swimming, biking, etc) improves so many things, right?
Happy present moment.
If not now, when?
If not ever, why?
