After a few days of some longer runs, my legs were definitely questioning my decision to go out again. But I didn't really feel like I had a choice, running is one of the only ways I can get out of my own head.

Was happy to see R there, waiting next to a large beginners group. When I look at someone like her, it is hard not to recognize all of the amazing qualities that live within her. And she was even kind enough to keep my pace today, which I know isn't easy to do.

Distance: 5.35 miles
State of Mind: It is hard to see the light in the midst of it all, but I truly believe it does exist.
