I'm a student. I am still going to school, which is going well. I wish it was over though. I finish school in June, but I return back in September. I hope to become a physical therapist after I graduate to help people, especially help them regain the ability to move. I am preparing for a 5k. I don't have a mantra for running, but I do listen to music.
I survived cancer. I am a healthy eater, which I think helped me overcome cancer. I love to run. I am preparing for a marathon. I don't like running when its hot. I just got a new job as a life coach. I love my work as a life coach. I use a mantra to help me run marathons. My mantra when running is "Not dead, can't quit".
I was practicing running the other day, and I think I was able to think of a mantra. I think it helped me run a bit better, but I want to discuss it with you to see if there's anything about it that I can improve for the next run. That sounds wonderful! What is the mantra you thought of? My mantra is "Deep breaths and quick legs!" it isn't as good as yours, but it works! I like that! Anything that fits you and keeps you going is a great mantra! Running in this heat may make me change my mantra to "Am dead. Have to quit." I am thinking of taking a vacation to somewhere cooler. Running relaxes me, but it's hard to relax when I'm sweating profusely.  haha! I am not sure I know any life coaches who have a mantra of "have to quit", very funny! Where would you go for vacation if you could go anywhere?   Haha, for sure! But I can't be a life coach if I'm not alive anymore, and I am not a big fan of hot weather. I think I'd like to go to Maine or perhaps somewhere in the Pacific Northwest. Both places have some excellent seafood I can use to make some healthy dishes. Very good point! I am trying to think of somewhere to go while School is out in July and August. I want to stay healthy while on vacation so I can stay prepared for my 5k. Maybe you could send some healthy recipes my way? I would love to! Do you like to cook healthy recipes often? I love junk food, but I almost never eat it. I hate to run for miles and then immediately counter it with just a tiny bit of fried food. I do not cook much at all, actually! I eat at a lot of the dining halls at my school. I need to start cooking for myself soon though so I am won't eat out all the time once I graduate. My weakness is pizza. I need to find a healthy alternative to pizza! I love pizza! Cauliflower crust is a great alternative, but the good ones can be a bit pricey. Do you live on campus? Cauliflower?! that does not sounds good, but I will definitely give it a try. I do live on Campus, It has a beautiful running trail but I am ready to graduate. You just reminded me that there is an indoor running "trail" at my local health club. Maybe I will need to get a membership so I can run in the air conditioning. I never lived on campus for school. I feel like I may have missed out on some good and interesting life experiences.
