I always looked down on myself for a lot of my life. I always compared myself to talented and athletic people.

Today I was on my usual run trying to get in shape. I normally run a mile but I decided I was going to push myself and see how much I'm capable of.

I ran 1.57 miles in around 15 minutes. It may not seem like a lot to some people, but I'm trying to be able to run at least 2 miles (hopefully more) by the next couple of months. It's been about 1-2 years since I ran 1.5 miles and I couldn't be happier to be me. I'm so proud of myself!
