Wow, what an inspiring and uplifting read! "Keep Running Up That Hill" truly hit home for me as someone who has struggled with the ups and downs of a long-distance running journey. Your words about the mental and emotional challenges that come with pushing yourself to new limits reminded me that I'm not alone in feeling that way. The way you described the feeling of accomplishment and the sense of self-discovery after a tough run is so relatable, and it's clear that you have a deep understanding of the transformative power of running.
I also appreciated the emphasis on listening to your body and setting realistic goals. It's so easy to get caught up in comparing ourselves to others and setting unrealistic expectations for ourselves, but your words served as a gentle reminder that progress and improvement come in many forms and at different paces for different people.
Thank you for sharing your story!
