MY WHY, Coach Rebecca Tillou
I can feel the ground beneath my shoes
I can feel the gravel as it crunches
Vibrating up through my feet into my legs
I can smell the trees
Starting to blossom
Leaves starting to form
The smell of Springtime
I can faintly hear the train as it goes by overhead
As my music plays in my ears
So many different types of music
From country, to pop, to Christian Rock, to Hamilton
I can taste my water, tinged with lemon juice, as I take a swig from my bottle
I can see the finish line. I can see victory. My own victory. I did it.
All the senses coming together as I set out on a run. All joining to regulate my body, mind and soul. Running is how I regulate. How do YOU REGULATE?
