I never thought I could run a mile, let alone FIVE, so when I did, something broke open in my brain. Limits started falling away. What have you done that you didn’t think you could do? #WroteANovel #Running #Booksky #NoLimits #YouCanToo
"I'm curious is there anything you've done that you didn't think you could do? I started running many years ago mainly to impress some boys who live near me. I ran a little bit with them and I almost died and I went back to my place and I thought I'm young I should be able to do better than this. So I started running on my own and the first time I ended up running five miles was such a revelation to me and one day I was frustrated with something and I went outside and I thought I could run out my frustration and I ended up going five miles and that really set a new standard in my head that if this thing that I never thought I could do I could do what other things where they're out there that I could do that I hadn't thought I could do and it's not insignificant that I ran five miles and then I got a PhD and then I found my husband and then I did all sorts of things. I think those five miles is what actually gave me the belief that I could do things outside of something I ever thought were possible. I'm so curious to hear what other people have managed to achieve that they never thought they could do."
