I stopped writing my blog first because I thought nobody was interested, (most likely true) nobody knew about it (definitely true), and I had lost my Mojo. I felt like I was simply writing for myself about a subject even I wasn't much interested in anymore. But all that changed on a long run listening to the Slow Runners Club podcast and the mentioned Daily Mile. Finally I have found a community I could relate to.
I discovered an 11 minute mile isn't so bad. I always thought I was terrible slow. Turns out I was average or so and that perked me up. Then I read about the mortal humans running their first races and they were so excited! Since I've run a hundred or so in my running career this was an eye opener. The excitement was back...for them and for me. And I met some amazing people. Husbands deployed, friends fighting depression, divorce...all life's little kicks in the onions but they mustered the strength to run. So what was my excuse. I'm a happy guy and I was a lazy guy. Now...the mojo is back.
