I got my period last night, (excuse the blunt opening) but i've been feeling crappy all day. The first day is usually the worst for me, extreme cramps and crazy back pains, nausea and really bad headaches :( it tends to get better as the day progresses, I finally got the energy to pick myself up and go for my usual run, unfortunately i got super sick, i had one more lap before i hit a mile, i had to stop. The pain was killing me, at first i hated myself because i had ONE more lap to go. I could've easily finished that, i could've pushed myself. I had the words quitter in my head as well as failure, i had to shake that off. Sure you can say "Steph you're being overdramatic, you're stronger than that, you totally could've ran that" and i know i could've, but I'm not gonna push myself to make the pain worse. I need to stop beating myself up over these little things, i still did great on my run today and I'm gonna do what i feel is right for my body. I'm still improving each and everyday :) I won't let this stop me from feeling fabulous!
EmbraceYourLimits, we all have them xoxo
