When I was 8-12 ish I LOVED to run. Scratch that. I've ALWAYS loved to run. Like......my brother gave me the nickname Thunder Child because I would run everywhere (and I still do). Ask my family, they will tell you, I love to run and I run everywhere.
Gah. Sometimes I just have these huge urges to just run. To be free. To feel the wind on my face. I just love to run okay? Okay.
But I digress. Anways. When I was 8-10-ish I was told my countless people that I would one day be an Olympic runner. I was fast. I regret that I didn't take advantage of that when I was younger. Oh well.
Lately I've taken up running more. It makes me so happy.
Today I was out for a run. I blared my music and ran my heart out. I was smiling from ear to ear (which I'm sure I looked like a dork), and gazing at the mountains surrounding me.
(Excuse me while I ramble off topic) So I've had this dream to climb Mt. Everest for as long as I can remember. From the moment I discovered it I have said "I'm going to climb Everest." People have called me crazy. Said that that will never happen and other ridiculous stuff. Anywho.
I've started running more because I love it, but also because I want to climb Everest. I have this huge desire to climb it and I'm not going to let that go.
So today as I was running and when I felt like I wanted to quit. I didn't let myself. I looked up at the mountains and imagined that they were Everest. (silly. I know) I told myself. Keep going. You're going to climb that mountain. I put a smile on my face. Thought to myself. "Man. I love this." Smiled some more and ran my heart out.
I was born to run. It's a part of me. I love it. :) :) :) :)
Anyways. I've rambled and made no sense. But oh well. I love life. I love it so much. And that.....That's all. XD
Oh and....there is this book, Born to Run that I am dying to eat up. And hey. You can read it too! Go check it out yeah? Okay :D
