The addiction has set in.
It always ends up happening. After a few weeks of running, I get addicted. Days I don’t run, I feel twitchy, and jittery. I miss the feeling of running. The endorphins, the alone time, the quiet, the views, the confidence it brings, they’re all addictive.
I know I need rest days to let my body heal and that cross training is super important, especially for my saggy, weak core, but some things all the logic in the world can’t fix. I don’t get the same rush from yoga or pilates that I do from running. I don’t find swimming to be a good workout, and honestly I don’t really love being in a bathing suit. I’m working on getting over that, but it takes time.
