Love that, and it's so true. 'The numbers on your watch are totally meaningless'. My piano teacher is into all the Zen stuff and she tells me the same - if you're not enjoying it, what's the point? Absolutely right. We should all go at our own pace and in our own time. Life is not a race, and neither is our running.

Omg I absolutely L❤️VE this!! And this is right where I'm at 🤗 I've quit thinking about the minutes and the distance for now, if I'm not out for "that long" it doesn't matter because my poor little body has joined forces with my mind and together they've decided that I'm doing the runs I "can" do not the ones I "want" to do 🤗 I'm just enjoying strengthening my dedication and getting out there and doing it! Boom! Thanks for sharing Equi-geek 😊 Synchronicity ❤️

I’ve spent a lifetime punishing myself ‘for my own good’ and it has taken running for my body to finally turn around and tell my brain to shut up and leave it alone 🤣 Glad it helped - peaceful running 😁👏👍
