I look back and, in a way, I am thankful for what happened to my knee…

passing out. Severely dehydrated, I was hurried to the E.R. and rapidly intravenously administered more than two liters of fluids. As I revitalized in a recovery bedroom, I realized my collapse on the track symbolized clearer frustrations I endured running college Track and Field. I was physically and mentally defeated.

Through thirty weeks of training, I learned about what kind of pants, shoes and socks work best with my body - wicking sweat while keeping me warm or cool as needed and preventing chafing. During countless hours of running five days a week including long, multi-hour runs on the weekends, I determined what kind of music to play on my iPod to keep my thoughts inspired and what kind of energy gels to carry in my belt pack to keep my body fueled. I built discipline, allowing…

consistent exercise in my life. The main barriers to the successful application of the goal were college classes I attended at night. However, after rearranging my running schedule, the barriers were overcome. During the total course of the project, the first week presented the most difficulty because of my amateur ability to sustain running for long periods of time. After evaluating my progress in the first week, I edited my goal which led to successful second and third weeks. Overall, the…

In a jog, you can take in the atmosphere of where you are running; noticing all of the mystifying beauty that had seemed to be so secretly concealed. Also along the path you get to meet other joggers as you cross paths on road called life. As you jog together for what seems to be a brief moment in time, you…

This past summer I had the experience of a lifetime, ten days in the breathtaking lands of Ireland and Scotland. Those ten days flew by like a marathon runner sprinting towards the golden trophy awaiting for its winner at the finish line. Pictures of monumental buildings and goofy tourist like photos flood my camera. Memories play over and over like a record player in my head, these memories I will hold close and cherish for a lifetime. I want to share a sneak peek of how much my life was…
