Winter was rough.
Spring was worse.
The 2-week break was desperately needed.
Now it is summer (well, not quite yet, but that's not the point). The time to start again has come and gone, and start again is what I have done. For almost 6 full months, I lost myself. I lost who I was, the fire inside me. I was a lost runner.
But now I am finding myself again. The body has been refreshed, the mind uncluttered. Step by step, mile by mile, I am finding myself again. I am learning. It's a slow journey, but it needs to be slow or I will lose myself again. The fire is burning again, but slowly. Rush it and it will be extinguished again. Be patient and it will engulf me completely once again. And I am ready to burn.
A few weeks ago, I was broken, lost, and not a runner. Today, I am a runner again.
