I’m inside of 40 days on my next running journey. It was 25 months ago when I decided to take up running as my wife signed me up for an event with 40 days to get ready. I knew that at that moment I was all in. I knew that action was needed to complete this personal goal.

Needless to say, my first few runs were anything but graceful. The first mile of my first run reminded me why I had not run in some time as evidenced by the aches and pains that I felt yet I pushed through. I knew that the pain I was feeling in the moment was forcing my body to do something new. The body was saying no, however, the mind was determined.

40 days later, I ran that initial Thanksgiving Day 4 mile event. The experience of pushing myself to do something new was an exhilaration. I knew that accepting that challenge brought me the exhilaration of victory.

Change is never easy, however, living what I call my CRASH life demands that I build a strong holistic foundation of body, mind, and spirit. Each of those factors are needed as I embark upon these next 40 days to complete my upcoming 13.1 mile event.

What about you? Are you ready for a change? Are you prepared to embrace 40 days of change?

40 days can make a difference in your life! If you’re ready to experience the exhilaration of victory, let’s chat about how you can create your next 40 days!
