RAF001: On the Trail for the First Time

“I’m not going to have the attitude that I’m not going to run. I’m definitely going to run.” I go out on the trail for the first time, discover Lake Fayetteville and think about thinking about running while walking. It’s important to have a goal, only if you want to achieve it. My goals are to be healthy, to be flexible and strong enough and fit enough to do things I want to do, like maybe playing disk golf or riding a bike. I see people running around the lake and I’m inspired, I want to be like them. But I crawled before I was able to walk, and I have to walk before I can run. Not everyone who starts a race finishes, but everyone who finishes definitely starts. This is my start.
