Running has made me really fu***ng happy lately 🥹
earlier this year, I was diagnosed with a stress injury in my femur. running stopped immediately, I spent 6 weeks on crutches, and then came the long process of rehab and eventually working my way back to impact.
and honestly? coming back has been fu***ng hard.
not necessarily because the running itself is hard. but because rebuilding something you used to be able to just do is frustrating as hell. having to hold yourself back when you feel good. questioning every random ache. being excited about progress while also wishing you were further along. trying not to compare what you can do now to what you could do before you got hurt.
there have been a lot of little wins mixed with a lot of are you fu***ng kidding me moments 😂
but somewhere in all of that, I got my running back.
I can lace up my shoes, walk out the door, put on my headphones and go run again.
and I don’t think I realized just how fu***ng much I missed that until I had it back.
I’m still rebuilding. I’m still nowhere near where I was before the injury. some runs feel great and some feel like absolute ass because, well, running 😂
BUT. I’m running. and I’m so fu***ng happy to be here.
