Incredibly grateful that I am able to push myself and be consistently active.

Funny story: I used to love running. I would always participate in sprints and cross country when I was younger, until I became winded half way through a race in grade 8 and I refused to run ever since.

This year on my mother’s birthday I took motivation from her journey in the form of having no choice but to endure. In the same vein, I wanted to pick up something difficult and give myself that same circumstance.

Also inspired by one of my best friends @colesfitnessjrny who will most definitely win a marathon someday. I’m so glad you dragged me out in the spring to go cold turkey on a 5k.

Once a week is my day and reason to show myself that I am capable of pushing further. It has led to a more open mind, deeper thoughts and more meaningful experiences overall.

I am incredibly happy with the goals I have achieved already with this, and can’t wait to go even further over this next year.

Also, you never really understand how many cyclists exist until you try this lol.
