Abs Swims, Bikes and Runs

"I may not hear the Rocky theme song, or see the sunset anywhere, but for me, this may be a sort of conclusion. An understated, rainy-day-sneakers sort of conclusion. An anticlimax, if you will. But the long and the short of it is that this kind of conclusion fits who I am. I didn't start running because somebody asked me to become a runner. One day, out of the blue, I started to run. Simply because I wanted to." Murakami

That Feeling...

A small step in the right direction last evening. We are all about the choices we make. I was lazing on the couch, idly watching India get beat by a second string Aussie side. But the urge to run was too strong. It was almost the perfect 5K jog. Everything felt right. The body floated along and I didn't push. It was a slow 5K in 49 mins. You can argue I could have walked that briskly but I'm content.

I kept my focus on ensuring my back was upright, my head straight, my bulging gut as taut as possible and my impact light and heels kicking back.

5K floated by. And I felt like I was floating too. That feeling of lightness, of your body moving in complete rhythm and effortlessly almost going where you want it to is incomparable to any other sensation.

Glad I am slowly getting back into that zone and reclaiming my only real superpower.
