The hardest thing in getting rid of your old habits is to start doing new activities (be it sports, reading new books, or else) which eventually you hope turns into a habit. This is exactly what I feel. Living in close proximity to my office, I am not so-much of an early riser anymore.
But, this got to change. As you may know from my previous blogpost, I am going to undertake my virgin 10K marathon in Jogja (#roadtojogmar2018) and my virgin 21K marathon in Bali (#roadtombm2018).
If you want to know why suddenly I sign up for Marathons (only if you really want to know), to be frank, I simply would like to be more positive, self-discipline and believe that in Him anything is possible in life.
Though 2017 was a hard blow to me which I simply do not wish to be repeated, I still believe that one day He will provide me that special something I've been longing for. Again, anything is possible in Him, and that include running Marathons.
So, here are a few of my approach to get my running mode on:
- Aim at 3 to 4 runs a week;
- Run at an easy 3K for the first week of training;
- Increase at an easy 5K for the following week;
- Always turn on my Nike running app prior to running;
- Get safety gears when running before sun rises;
- Always do proper stretching before and after run;
- Cross-training is important;
- Have a running buddy (oh my sweet friend, T)
- Do not sleep too late to start your morning run.
What are your approaches (fill in the comments below)? 😄😉
At last, one day I will hopefully say this quote below:
