Running will always count as my first fitness love. It ignited my passion for physical movement in elementary school when I ran circles around my parents’ three-acre backyard. While my relationship with running has ebbed and flowed over the years—while staying pretty consistent over the past decade—it’s also provided a path to new ways to stay active.

Cuando estoy en la línea de partida de cualquier carrera (pero especialmente cuando estoy compitiendo por llegar más rápido), siento una punzada de ansiedad que me susurra al oído que algo podría salir mal. Por ejemplo, que no alcanzaré mi objetivo y que todo el duro trabajo de entrenamiento habrá sido en vano. O que terminaré recorriendo kilómetros con dificultad y lamentando cada paso. O peor aún, que me lesionaré y me quedaré fuera de la carrera.

Standing on the start line of any race – especially when I’m vying for a faster finish time – I feel a twinge of anxiety pop up and, in my ear, I hear whispers telling me that something might go wrong. For example, I’ll miss my goal and all the hard work of training will have been for nothing, or I’ll end up slogging through the miles and regretting every step. Or, worse, I’ll find myself injured and sidelined.
