I started long distance running back in 2007, but have been running since my track days in junior high and high school – 35 plus years. Running has always been my therapy, so the lack of running has started to affect my mental and physical health here lately. I’ve been fighting some demons I thought I let go for some reason, so wanted to share a throwback picture of one of my strongest half marathons in Chicago IL, 9 years ago.


I miss feeling this strong-and pray I can get back to this place someday. Can anyone relate?
Cheers,
Michelle
I can relate! I’m focusing on sleep over running now. Once I feel rested I hope to get back out on the roads.

Ugh! I’m with you. I’ve been lacking on sleep as well which doesn’t help me at all. Hope you’re able to find some relief soon!!

I can totally. The only thing that would help with my grieving would be boxing and lifting. I now have to wear a sling when not in bed. Miserable as hell 😫

I hope whatever’s keeping you from running works itself out soon so you can get back to it.
