No rules, No schedule, Just Running!

I decided that this year I would give my body a break and not run track. This decision is turning out to be a great choice on my part. The reason for this is that I can now regain the full joy of running again.

I realized that I had lost it in the cross season. I became too worried in what my teammates were thinking of me, or asking myself if I was going too slow and wondering if coach was going to have to stop me.

Now that I'm on my own I can run just for me. Just to run. I can go as fast or as slow as I want. I can wear what I want without wondering what the others would think. I'm having fun again!

Yet, the downfall is the fact that I miss being part of a team.
I miss being part of a unit. I miss the various people and stories. I feel that without track the have no reason to hang out with me.







So that leaves me to make a choice.

Do I choose avoid being "Trackless" the rest of my years here?

Or do I participate in Cross Country and leave the track time to regain the "fun of the sport"?
