Finding That Post 2 Mile Joy

Joy_of_Running

If you hang around me at all you know that I am not shy when it comes to talking about running.  The blog is just a natural extension of something I like to do in person, and anybody that spends more than a minute or two with me is painfully aware of this.  I guess that is what happens when you are passionate about something, you just can’t keep your love and experiences to yourself.

Because of this, I occasionally get an email, tweet, or message on Facebook telling me how I have been an inspiration or at the least an encouragement or motivation for starting or continuing when things get tough.  By far, that is the most fulfilling part of the journey I have taken, and brings a undeniable smile to my face regardless of how things are going at the time.

1,000 Miles and Counting

I knew it was coming soon, but I totally missed when it finally showed up.  This year the 1,000 miles came a little quicker than last year.  Last year I didn't hit the 1,000 mile marker till the first week of November, however this year the achievement was made The first weekend in October.  If you would have asked me even a couple years ago if I would have ran a total of 1,000 miles ever I would have laughed at you in disbelief, but now I am nearing a total of 3,000 miles since I started logging.
