My holiday time has been rather stationary. I was hoping for daily walks with dad and occasional run at least once a week and I managed to stick to my Friday runs, but daily walks didn’t really happen. Not every day at least. Either I stay in bed for way too long or go shopping or deal with other errands/appointments and by the time I’m done it’s dark or rainy or I just don’t fancy going outside.
Yesterday however we braved it out for an hour walk, despite the rain. Both, dad and I put on our rain jackets and went outside to catch some fresh air.
It was already dark and the rain seem to have paused for a little while, but once we were about half way through our planned walk it started to rain more and the icy wind was pushing the raindrops into our faces with a punch that we could feel quite heavily.
There is something satisfying in venturing out for an exercise in conditions like yesterday though. It’s kind of practicing being exposed to the challenge in rather safe way.
Just like in the book I am currently reading, a walk like yesterday was a great way of practicing to stay open while facing adversity. Usually my dad is walking faster than me and I sometimes moan a little that one body part or another is starting to ache, but yesterday it was me who picked up the tempo and dad already spent over an hour at the gym, so it was his time to moan a little about his shins 😉
Once we walked past the chapel at the cemetery we knew we’ve completed majority of our walk and our hearts were pumping and we felt rather warm despite the rain, which btw on this last stretch of the walk was already blowing us forward rather than in our faces.
A very last heap of snow was still there over a week after it was snowing. The temperatures are well above the zero already, but it managed to stay here, covered from the sun, by the shade of the forest.
We came back home and I decided to skip the supper, only drank half a cup of my home made kefir. My deteriorating way of eating has shown some ugly effects in a form of a few hives and swollen body parts, so I need to make sure to get back on the healthy road.
Until next walk 💙
