Yesterday was just a ordinary Saturday & yet I found it pretty special. No major milestones or events, but nevertheless memories were created. Had the fortune of not 1, but 2 super fun runs & even managed to get some stuff done in between. One of my runs was even a race on the beach! And as it turned out I ran 1 min & 4 sec faster than last year? I phrase it that way though because I couldnt recall last years time & had to look it up. I do LOVE the feeling of occasionally racing & pushing myself to an all out effort, but not gonna lie.... Im actually enjoying getting older & to the place where the numbers matter less & less and the journey is what matters so much more. A week from now Im not going to remember how many miles I ran yesterday; already forgot how much I biked & erged, but heres what Im not going to forget: jumping in puddles & singing movie soundtracks along my morning run, the feel of the sand & the smell of the sea on the evening run, my brand new premie client falling asleep in my arms midday, the way my soul warming post race chicken soup tasted & an overwhelming number of smiles and little moments shared with countless friends throughout the day. Was feeling grateful for all the recent November Project Fri AM bleacher breakfasts as well because theyve definitely begun to make me stronger. Sharing also though because another friend did not have such a good day & was in an accident doing what he loves most. Hes a fighter so doubt he will come back even better than before, but as corny as it may sound, just wanted to share the reminder to take nothing for granted & at least a little time every day to stop and smell the roses (whatever your roses might be) because we only get 1 life & it is precious. #milesofsmiles #beachbumming #littlemoments #gratitude
