Happiness

In response to Wes' post today, I thought I'd throw out my little secret to happiness in regards to running & racing. I love it when my husband makes little comments about how good I look. "You are so little now, I'm surprised the wind doesn't blow you away." I'm actually not that much smaller than I was when I started running seriously nearly 2 years ago... but he has noticed a change. That makes all my efforts worthwhile. I also love it when I see improvements myself (a PR for a particular distance, a stronger core, etc.). I feel healthier. I have more energy. I am happier when training than when not. :)

  3. It's nice that it's not only making you feel good but making you feel more confident and mentally healthy too.

  5. Compliments are great, but noticing the difference in yourself is the best!
