These three words

Confidence - The feeling or belief that one can rely on someone or something.
Passion - When you put more energy into something than required to do it.
Zest - Great enthusiasm or energy.
Today - The perfect combination of the above.

Back to the grind today and having a routine felt really good again, even despite an early morning. I woke feeling rested, refreshed and ready to take on the day. The work day flew by and I was really looking forward to a good workout. Originally I planned to do a quick run and weight combo, but once I started running, it was difficult to cut it short. Everything felt just perfect - my stride, breathing, form - everything was bang on. I managed to cover 10 km in an hour and 4 minutes and it felt great.

Yes, I did increase more than I should have. Yes, I veered from my plan. But I knew I could do it, and did I ever want to hit a double digit distance. Besides, how would I know without trying?

2013 will bring a lot, but first...my confidence.
