for me, the only easy thing about jogging is stopping.
but i've decided to jog, and so i'm doing some light jogging a couple times a week.
neither my body nor my brain want this, but the positive effects on both are undeniable.
so here we are.
i guess i just have to remind myself that once i was able to run all the way around lake merritt! (granted, i was an oakland bike girl back then, and was about 15 pounds lighter, but hey....)
and there are some unexpected benefits, like seeing the giant cattleya blooms at the house of a neighbor, or seeing a beautiful raptor that had a white head, white front, and dark wings and back. and the benefits to my anxiety situation are immense. boohoo lol.
i just need to be grateful that i have the time and space to do this exercise, and hope that it'll get easier over time. 😭
