I've never been a runner. Even when I was a competitive skater, I didn't run. I have never run. In high school I walked the required lap around the field and took C's in P.E. because I refused to run. I would always get a nasty stitch in my side and my girls would bounce so much I thought one of them was going to launch off at any moment and hit some unsuspecting pupil running next to me. *shakes head* I have just never found even the smallest bit of enjoyment out of it.
However....
Lately my walks have turned into speed walks and I find myself wanting to take flight mid walk. I have actually wanted to run....well, maybe a light jog would be more accurate. I've never felt this urge before. But, I find my mind has been trying to force my body to stay at a quick walk...my legs clearly ready to launch into the jog...my heart and lungs saying "pfft! that all you got?"....and it seems the only thing stopping me is fear.
So....the next gym workout is going to be on the treadmill....and when I get to that moment when my legs want to launch into a jog...I'm actually going to let them! lol...
