So I've been working out with my buddy and today was cardio day.
I like cardio now.
I used to hate cardio
Until I discovered what avid runners call "the runner's high". I fell in love and never went back.
I am, to say the least, a little out of shape. After a shoulder injury and a new job, I haven't worked out in almost a year.
So I was having a rough time, but pain has always been a great source of fuel for our creative furnaces, right?
So, During this session, in the middle of an asthma attack, I made up a chant, or poem if you will.
Here it is:
As I run I hear the sound of the wind, the birds, and my breath
Labored from stress
So I concentrate on the feelings of my feet
Connecting with the street, then
My breath
My stress
Begins to become less
Because I focused on my breath
Because I focus on my breath
I'm finally at my best.
I'm finally at my best...
... and that's what I would repeat when I started to get that, "I just wanna quit" mentality.
And it worked.
I'm going to keep doing this because it help me keep calm and enjoy, "my runners high".
I hope you enjoyed my poem/running chant.
Gotta do what you can to power through those difficult moments. Sounds like your mantra was enough to give you the strength to finish.
Thanks man, that makes me feel great to hear. I'm bringing him and the whole Wayve family to our Hive!
