Runner's High

Eff what I said last night/this morning.
I like me, dammit
And that's all that really matters. Obvs I'm always working on being a better version of me...but I'm a great work-in-progress.

I went to volunteer this morning (which I will be blogging about @ DoinGood later today) and it started pouring down rain. Honestly, it made me a little bitter about everything but then I saw those runners in the final stretch trying to get through the finish line...and I felt totally inspired. So I came home and went running in the rain. One of the best workouts I've had in recent memory. I was only supposed to go 24 minutes this morning but ended up going 34 total instead. I'd totally forgotten how much I actually like to run in the rain until this morning; I don't think I've done a wet run since I lived in The Cave @ Grant Park (omg, that was 2 years ago!). Even though I'm going to hate having to straighten my hair so that I look human again, I'm savoring the way my body and my brain feel right now.
