Unlike self-improvement—which is often about aggressively chasing goals, building habits, or "fixing" yourself—ripening is about time, integration, and readiness.
Today is the first day of the running challenge and I'm happy to report that i was out of bed and on the treadmill by 6:30 am. I took it slow but i was able to complete the mile. I did a 0.1 to warm-up, followed by a mile, then 0.1 to cool down. (which explains the 1.20)
It took longer than it probably should have. Total time was 18:35 but i'm not sure how much of it was spent during the warm-up and cool-down.
