Happy MONDAY! TGIM!
MONDAYS QUOTE OF THE DAY:
"Always have something to look forward to." ~ Tony Robbins.
MONDAYS THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
It's been about 3 weeks since my longest run ever.
Pretty cool huh?
I dreamed BIG.
I trained HARD.
And I accomplished the seemingly IMPOSSIBLE.
Who knew I could run that far at one time?
After such a big 3-month training effort, dreaming about it, thinking about it, and
after running miles and miles and miles, there is a letdown.
It's a natural thing. After being guided, week in and week out with the number of miles I was going to run, I am now left with a feeling of, " What do I do now? " (shoulder shrug)
That brings us to TODAY'S QUOTE OF THE DAY by Tony Robbins.
There are other things in life that I do look forward to. For instance this weekend I am DJing a Family Dance at our church. I am looking forward to that. I have the gift of prayer and sometimes I think the most valuable thing I do that day is saying a heartfelt prayer for a friend or a special someone. I look forward to seeing my kids after their day at school. I look forward to seeing my wife when she is done with work.
I think even in the smallest ways, it is good to have something to look forward to.
Other things I get to look forward to are:
1) A run with a friend.
2) A special high-energy spin class with David Garza! (that was awesome!)
3) A Camp Gladiator workout (I do that twice a week)
4) Time with God (you never know what God might say next, ha)
5) Laughing
6) Getting a massage
If you take these micro-moments of awesome and string them together, you end up having a good day!
And that's sometimes how I strive and thrive after a big race.
I look forward to the coming weeks to continuing to train with a triathlon focus as I mentioned in my previous e-mails.
Happy Monday! TGIM!
