Running is a deeply reflective and spiritual practice for me.
As I began a new marathon training cycle this past week, I reflected on how each training cycle feels like a new opportunity to learn. In order to focus this learning, I’ve decided to focus on a theme each of the 14 weeks during training, and to go deep on that theme.
For week 1, I focused on paradoxes. For some reason, paradoxes seem to be everywhere in my life right now - whether in spirituality, relationships, or work. So each day, I dove into a paradox that had shown up within my life and focused on it during my run.
