A New Day One ...

Image
I am one month into my new training cycle and realized I had yet to begin blogging.  Needless to say this go around has been much different than others. I am about to celebrate my 6th runiversary (completed 5 years), and I realized  perhaps this is a New Day One.   [If you want to read about my first 5 years of running and all the craziness in that, there is a link in the footer to my old blog]. Here I am again. I turned 40 last year and wow what a year.  I overcame some of my biggest challenges.  Almost every race saw a new PR, needless to say I am a stronger runner today than I was 5 years ago when I thought I was at my peak.  I accomplished several challenge races I never dreamed possible.  I joined an online running community that I now call home, they are my tribe #FFTFL.  I wish so many times I would have found them years ago when I thought fat girls couldn't run.  But guess what Fat girls can run .. AND NOT finish last. I post on their Facebook group all the time,
