Originally I had wanted to run a marathon but now I truly understand how long that is and how much it entails so to fit to my life and goal the goal is now to run a 5k. I’ve been working on it for a while… and I see improvement but I know im in no way ready to run a true race however I no longer feel like puking after running for 15 min. Thus, there is progress :)
Currently,I run on the treadmill as it is too cold out and Im running 1.5 miles in about 25 min which is 2.4 km. This is comfortable but im working on increasing my speed and lengthening my stride and my time.

How I did it: I got on a plane headed south. I opened my mind to the possibilities. I was prepared for the worst but open to the rest. I was amazed by the capacity of love to overcome 11 years and many miles. I spoke my own language and dreamed in it. I returned home sad. Read how I did it…
