Once the layers are peeled aback, one should always find the “why” at the core of their goal. Click here if you want to read my core for training for a half marathon.

After Run Reflection:

A tough run! March 12 was the first run I ever did by myself. There isn’t much to reflect on (part of me debates whether or not to remove the After Run Reflections entirely). Running seems to be a time to think when one is by themselves. For more of my life, I viewed running as a communal activity, with start and end lines. Training season is a body and mind conflict, and a conflict against the (crappy) Garmin.
