The Lord of the Rings Challenge

Day 272.

 

Day 4 complete!

I wanted to go running today but the sky looked very nasty and it would rain a bit every so often, so I decided to push it off until tomorrow. Instead I spent nearly the whole afternoon and much of the evening in front of my computer, sending a bunch of emails and catching up on correspondence. It was very productive work that needed to be done, and I took a break to give my grandparents a call, but it was still draining. I'm proud of myself that when thoughts of PMO came up as a distraction or reward, I was able to redirect them into checking the next thing off my list.

Hey hey, runners unite! I don't explicitly time myself but I can usually get 7 miles in just a bit over an hour. I've run two half marathons before and I hope to finish another one this spring, even if it has to be an informal, personal affair due to Covid.

 

Congratulations!

 

After relapsing 5 days ago, I decided hold on and see if I will be able to stand again. So I decided to start again today.
So here goes Day 000/500

 

Day 18 and still going strong.

 

Starting to feel the benefits

 

Day 4 Check in!

Let´s go!!

 

Day 48. Checking in. Feeling positive today and back on track with my sleep schedule. I have have been writing and reading a lot which has really enabled me to organize the information in my head. I find it very cathartic to start and end my days with these activities

 

Day 7. Good to put a week of distance between myself and the addiction. Here's to a good, strong week everyone!

 

Day 37 in progress!
Starting to feel better, but still having trouble sleeping early. I know what to do to tackle this problem, because it all has to do with my phone. I have to put my phone in a different place, completely out of the room that I sleep in. I always tell myself that I will just watch 1 video before sleeping, but of course this never happens and I end up sleeping hours later.
I will change this habit starting today! I also want to read more, so I will try and read for about 30 minutes before I go to sleep and replace the bad habit with a good habit.
Much love to everyone!

 

Yeah me too I usually don't drink anything when running but today I had 400ml of water while running. I ended up running marathon in 4 hours and 50 minutes ! Last two hours of it I prayed to finish what I started and they were a torture( Runners know what I'm talking about it's when you have calves,knees,buttocks and spleen,+ ,aching at the same time.It feels like ripping you apart from inside. It's a pain in every step you take.). Lost 3.5 kg while running it.But it was worth it, because at the end I felt great with sense of accomplishment of the difficult task and very good mood and a sense of kindness, especially towards other runners .

 

Day 104 complete

 

Day 4. Feeling more possitive and renewing my life of prayer

 

day one check in

 

Day 10, checking in. Ending a great weekend away to visit friends and family. Feeling very heart-full from the trip and ready to rock the week

 

Day 18 trod on

 

Day 7 finished! First week is completed. I had severe brainfog today an didnt feel pretty good. Nevertheless, I am happy to have completed the first week. May many other successfull weeks follow!

 

Day 2/14

 

Day 4-5 (writing for 5 since I will not have time again tonight and I am 100% sure I am not gonna relapse):

Strangely enough, my HOCD is getting better already. I have been having fantasies that I want instead of ones that give me anxiety. However, these wanted fantasies don't make me want to fap. It feels. . . healthy? I am not sure. I would explain what the targets of the good and bad fantasies are but I will spare you all the awkwardness. Lol

Days 4 and 5 finished, only had one urge (HOCD style)
