Lockdown is like an endurance race.

This week on Instagram I posted that lockdown is an endurance race because, as far as I am concerned, it is.

Lockdown 2.0 is a test of emotional, mental, physical and spiritual endurance.

The response to the post was very positive, so I wanted to make sure that I shared it here.

The eight points below allowed me to start and finish a 104km (7,448m elevation) endurance running event in April last year.

Below is what got me through.
⠀
1. I had a group of people whom I could ask for help, and I asked them for help. ⠀

2. I fuelled my body well. ⠀

3. I stayed away from people who drained my energy.

4. I was clear with my crew about what I needed.

5. I allowed others to guide me when I could not guide myself.

6. I listened to The Greatest Showman soundtrack – a lot.

7. I felt ALL the feelings I needed to feel. ⠀

8. I put one foot in front of the other, taking each moment as it came.
⠀
We all endure in different ways, but we can all endure more than we think we can.
⠀
Wishing you a weekend of putting one foot in front of the other.
