You hear people say "It's a good pain". I've said it myself when I have started an exercise plan in the past. I've been asked how I feel after my two 5K's this past week-end. "Ouch" just about covers it! Calves are definitely a bit sore so I took a rest day yesterday but it is definitely a good pain. It's a soreness that comes from pushing forward and not from hurting yourself. I pushed myself and completed my week-end goals and today I get back on my bike and continue my journey to fitness and a healthier me.
I like this poster. It really doesn't get easier but you do get better and stronger and that's what moves you to continue. At least it's what moves me. Getting stronger, hopefully leaner, and doing more. 5 weeks ago, I wouldn't have even thought about doing 5K's back to back and yet this past week-end, it became something to look forward to.
Next stop, duathlon on June 17th!
