Good Evening lovelies!
As of late with the @bloghomework @midnightsun @lyxen , I've been noticing a lot of us lovely SG ladies putting up bucket lists for everyone to see. This is one of many ways that we confront our mortality, because in recognizing that we aren't going to live forever (unless of course we're immortal ;-) ) we should set out and do, see, and accomplish what we want during our short time here on this planet. These past several months for me have been incredibly eye opening, and have challenged me to my very core as a person, allowing me to acknowledge who I am, what I want, and where I want to be as the years go on.
-So for me, I definitely want to travel and see as much as I possibly can. With the world being as big as it is, it is more connected now than it ever has been, especially with groups like ours :-)
-More tattoos <3
For me, and this is really diving head first, this is a a huge item on my bucket list, and a current goal that I have for myself for this year; I want to run 1,000 miles.
When I was younger, which was just a few years ago but was a lifetime ago, I was in my early 20's and my mom and step dad were much healthier in their mid 40's than I was as a 20 something :-p So 20 pounds overweight, I started running. I will tell you what; I FUCKING SUCKED!!! I ran maybe a mile to 2 miles the first time, and was nearly dead afterwards. I hated it. But I was determined to lose the weight and try to keep it off. At the end of the summer, I was running 4-5 miles a day 5x a week. Fast forward several years later, and here I am trying to get back into the habit and lifestyle that I've loved so much. For me, especially since I was never athletic growing up, this has been incredibly empowering for me.
So far I've been doing good most of January. I ran about 25 miles last week and about 15-20 the week before. Me and my partner just joined a gym because it is getting cold, so as much as we hate the gym, especially treadmills, we're well on our way :-)
The biggest reason why I want to get back into this lifestyle is because I want to be able to step out as the person that I want to truly be. Being who I am, and being part of the community that I am, it is so difficult to step out as the woman that I want to be. I know that for me, it is absolutely crucial to be able to get into this healthier lifestyle so that I will be able to better represent who I want to be and be able to step out into the world as who I truly am.
I want to thank all of you that take your time to read my my posts and leave comments for me and who have been supportive of me from the beginning. I enjoy reading what you have to say and until the next time tah tah lovelies :-) <3
