Confucius never mentioned to watch that first step though. If you’re not careful you might just trip. Today I not only tripped but face-planted. It was supposed to be the first day of my half marathon training but work and then life got in the way. I know that the half marathon is a long way away, but it is discouraging to see that I can’t even get the first day right. I’ll make up for it today no matter what though. I guess it is symbolic. This is going to be a very difficult journey, and there will be stumbles along the way, but as long as I pick myself up and keep going I’ll be ok.
