Into The Sun

It's funny how everything came about today. I've been back in Louisiana for about 4 days now. And the first thing I did out the gate was start back marathon training, eating right and detoxing my body. Today was my first long run in quite some time. 7 miles to be exact. I wanted to do 10 but the sun started to go down and I didn't want to run in some random dark area alone, especially without my pepper spray. The first mile was a pain, I was breathing heavy. My whole body slumped. Not going to lie, it was a bit terrible. The second mile just as bad. It finally set in just how terrible I've been treating my body over the past year. Spent most of it drowned in massive amounts of alcohol and little to no eating. Yep, I fell off. This run shoved all that in my face. Nonetheless, I just kept pushing until I hit 5 miles and something happened. It wasn't a hard so I decided to keep it moving and I made it all the way to 7 and could have kept going. So here's to tomorrow. Let's see if I can keep this up.
