And it’s getting harder to get myself outside and run. I don’t have an actual habit of running. I still run twice a week, but I do not have an exact time or day when I do this. It’s all free flow.
On one side, I like this approach because it gives me the sense of liberty. I’m choosing when to run, how much to run, when I want.. I’m such a rebel :))
On the other side, if my schedule blows up or if the weather outside is frightful, my monkey brain immediately turns to debating this horrible idea of running. The problem? The freakin’ mind is convincing, way to convincing.
Winter is great for running. Not. I dislike having to dress up with 2-3 layers. I enjoy the summer shorts and t-shirt and you’re off to the races. The decision fatigue of choosing what to wear, how many layers, is it too much, will it be too cold? Damn it, let’s just run. Or stay at home – says my monkey brain. Not a bad idea actually, it’s warm and cozy.
Today is actually a pretty warm day(9 degrees Celsius) and it’s sunny(still). But I still feel like staying inside.
Nevertheless, it’s time to run. Got to get some endorphins and quiet the mind. Bye bye.
The slow run
