BUT....What if you Fly?
It's pretty amazing when you have moments to witness and feel how much power the mind has over the body. I realized it is literally a messenger for the body that just needs to be programmed to tell you "C'mon you can do it." at all times. On this lovely Mothers day I was able to run outside again for the first time in three years, with my comeback being a 5K for Breast Cancer. The morning of the run I had no idea what would happen, but I was happy to take on the challenge and prove my car accident and Physical Therapist wrong. The decision to run was made four days prior with absolutely no idea how my knees would handle the impact. However, instead of focusing on "What if I fail", I shifted my mind to "What if I fly!" I already knew that my body was ready to run a 5K, yet my fear of running outside just overpowered me. Here I was ready, I had my number tag on, my cape and was ready to take off, blast my DJ Private Ryan Soca Starter, turn off all thoughts about my knee and just focus on the finish line.
