Good Morning! Just finished up a nice 4.85 mile run on a beautiful morning in Indy. I've been able to run two days in a row after missing a couple weeks due to the craziness of August, the August Rush if you will. Now...opening for the residential communities has been completed and our summer projects are nearly complete and I can refocus on adding running back to my life.
This time of year is always tough on housing professionals and I'm sure all professions have a time or two a year where work dominates and it's difficult to run. For me, the key is not necessarily trying to force running into those times, but to remain committed to picking up running as soon as the craziness has subsided. Even though I was a bit disappointed that I could not lace up the shoes I didn't allow myself to forget that I'm a runner and I'd pick right back up in August & September.
As I was running today I couldn't help but think I'm at a crossroads. I am contemplating running a half-marathon in November. I'm also contemplating just running to run again. The hardest part for me is finding a time to put running back into my weekly schedule. I suppose once I figure that out, then it will be easier to determine if I want to try a half again.
Have a great week. Happy running to you...
