Today was the last leadership team meeting that I will lead as the President of Cornerstone. True to form (of late), I ended up getting massively upset. My feelings get hurt too easily, perhaps, but not only was I angry, I was also really hurt. So my run was well-fueled. I ran 7 miles on the mill. And maybe it wasn't as hard as I have run some of them - it wasn't - but I got to talk about my frustration while I ran, and I think that I may have staved off what was certain to be a stroke by the time I hit 50. Maybe I do need to be that therapist that talks to clients during a run. I don't know that I'd feel ok now or that I would have been able to talk about it without also running. Did I mention that I was running with the person who made me so upset? Yep. That probably helped too. I haven't found many things that were helped by a good run. I'm not sure that I'm completely over it just yet, but I'm well on my way.
I think that my expectations may be too high. In general, for the people on my leadership team, and for friends (and what that means). Eh... I don't know if I can readjust. Maybe I'll just have to learn how to get over it a little better.
In any case, the run was a good one, and I'm really glad that I did it.
