Sacrifice {Treadmill Tuesdays – Week 17}

Week 16 || Four Month Update

On this week of eternal sacrifice, I’ve thought often of that word. What does it mean to sacrifice?

Sometimes, I have to get up earlier than the sun to run. Sometimes, I have to drown out the sounds of Doc McStuffins. I do laundry more often because of sweaty clothes. Some days, I have cramps and other days, I feel so exhausted I don’t want to move.

Some days, I’d rather watch Grey’s Anatomy and others, I’d rather eat everything in sight.

But time and effort are a small sacrifice for health. They are a small penance to pay to want health eternally and to be able to run after my little ones.

What have you sacrificed for your health lately?
