Beyond that 5 minutes



To jog for 5 minutes feels like forever. But I tell myself DON’T STOP just push myself and yes I feel the pain on my legs. I passed that 5 minutes and to complete the 10 minutes is a challenge. I feel like stopping again. Then again I just push myself and I feel like my legs are giving up and feeling both the pain and the mind… debating against each ‘others’ I passed that 10 minutes. Adding up another 10 minutes is between the strong and the weak.  But I did it! Now going to complete the 30 minutes?? Yes seems impossible, but hey! I am not running, I am jogging definitely not walking. I think one can differentiate between a walk and a jog. Then if one really feel the jogging or the working legs and muscles, after that 20 minutes one will find that he/she had found the rhythm. Jogging becomes like normal walking now. Finally one will finish that 30 minutes jog without problem and stopping will becomes natural back to walk. I push myself beyond the limit today, 35 minutes… but I feel hungry… but I am not sure if I can do it or not… but add another 5 minutes, a bit pressure on the  toes but I go on and add another extra 5 minutes, jogging rhythm ok toes not that much of pressure, normal still can go on.. but stomach growling.. ok 45 minutes stop! I did more than I expected today. It is actually easy, if one will only go beyond the limit and push oneself just a little bit more. Mind and body need to converse together and hear them both working and getting that 30 minutes of jogging will be a true success! Good luck!
