I’ve never been so proud to lift 4-lb weights! Two months ago, I broke my wrist while running. I took the rest that was required, and today I was cleared to start running without a brace and start lifting (small). Years ago, I would have scoffed at the idea of me getting tired after “only” running 2 miles or getting tired from 4-lb dumbbells. But today, I am so proud. Life has different seasons, and you have to honor where you are at NOW. Not where you were 5 years ago, not where you hope to be 10 years from now. Do your best, and be proud. I’ll get my strength and cardio back. But I’m also thankful for a season that I got to slow down and reflect. I’m wiser (and a plate and screws heavier)! Excited to get stronger but I’m proud of where I am.
