Just Keep Running

So I've been on vacation for the past week. My brother was married in Hawaii, so I "had" to come;) I have to say, I'M IN LOVE with Hawaii....This is the most beautiful place I have ever seen, and I am heading back home today completely relaxed and nicely tanned:)

Back when I started running (a whole 10 months ago), I promised myself that I wouldn't take shortcuts when it comes to my runs. For me this means not stopping to walk unless I have to, never cutting corners, running up every hill I encounter (not easy), and finally, making sure I run even when I'm on vacation.

I have to say that running in Hawaii isn't that difficult, as there is so much natural beauty to behold, and the constant breeze is like God's air conditioning:) I'm proud to say that I have run every morning I've been here!

Here I am running in Hawaii:)

If I can encourage you with something today, it's that keeping promises to yourself will breathe life to your habits. Your will power and discipline will be strengthened and you will get a strong sense of accomplishment.
