When I trained for and ran my first half marathon, I was so happy to cross that finish line! I wore my medal for weeks! But I was also sad because this thing that had consumed so much of my time, so much of my life was now gone and there was nothing left to fill it. (That’s when I started training for another one.)
Moving to New Zealand has been a bit like that first half marathon. It was such a big goal that had been in my life for a long time that now it’s achieved I have nothing to focus on. (I am certainly not planning another move!)
From the exercise in my last blog post I have focus again! And amongst my goals of buying a house, looking at service delivery at work and travelling in New Zealand, I plan to run the Auckland Half Marathon. Ahh.. race schedules, how I have missed you…
