Ndimakonda kuthamanga usiku. Ndidayamba kuchita izi kusukulu yasekondale, ndipo palibe chomwe chidandipangitsa kukhala womasuka komanso wamphamvu. Poyamba, zimabwera mwachibadwa kwa ine. Ndili mwana, ndinkachita bwino kwambiri pamasewera omwe ndinkakonda kuthamanga, kusewera mpira ndi kuvina. Koma ngakhale ndinali wokangalika, panali chinthu chimodzi chimene sichinabwere mosavuta kwa ine: kulemera kwanga. Sindinakhalepo ndi zomwe ena angatche "thupi lothamanga," ndipo ngakhale ndili wachinyamata, ndimalimbana ndi sikelo. Ndinali wamfupi, wonenepa, komanso wodzimvera chisoni.

Ndinali pagulu lothamanga, ndipo machitidwe anali kupangitsa maondo anga kupweteka, kotero tsiku lina ndinapita kwa wophunzitsa sukulu kuti andithandize. Adandiuza kuti mavuto anga abondo atha ndikangotaya mapaundi 15. Sanadziwe konse, ndinali kale ndikudya zakudya zopatsa mphamvu za ma calories 500 patsiku kuti sungani kulemera kwanga. Chifukwa chodzipha komanso kukhumudwa, ndinasiya gululo tsiku lotsatira.

Kumeneku kunali kutha kwa nthawi yanga yosangalala usiku. Zinthu zinafika poipa kwambiri, nditangomaliza maphunziro anga kusekondale, amayi anga anamwalira ndi khansa. Ndinakankha nsapato zanga kuthamangira kumbuyo kwa kabati yanga, ndipo amenewo anali mathero anga onse.

Mpaka 2011 nditakwatiwa ndikukhala ndi ana anga omwe ndinayambanso kuganiza zothamanga. Kusiyanitsa, nthawi ino, ndikuti sikunakhudze kuchuluka pamiyeso ndi chilichonse chokhudza kukhala wathanzi kuti ndithe kuwona ana anga akukula. Panalinso gawo la ine lomwe limakumbukira ufulu ndi mphamvu zomwe zimachokera ku thupi lamphamvu, ndipo ndimafuna kutsimikizira ndekha kuti nditha kutero.

Vuto lokhalo: Ndinali wamkulu 22 osati kwenikweni pachimake. Koma sindinalole kuti kulemera kwanga kundilepheretse kuchita zomwe ndimakonda. Chotero ndinagula nsapato zothamanga, kuzimanga, ndi kutuluka pakhomo.

Kuthamanga pamene mukulemera kwambiri sikophweka. Ndili ndi ma spurs a chidendene ndi ma shin. Ululu wanga wakale wa bondo unabwereranso, koma mmalo mosiya, ndinkapuma mofulumira ndi kubwerera kunja uko. Kaya kunali masitepe angapo kapena makilomita angapo, ndinkathamanga usiku uliwonse dzuŵa litaloŵa, Lolemba mpaka Lachisanu. Kuthamanga kunakhala zoposa kuchita masewera olimbitsa thupi, kunakhala "nthawi yanga". Nyimbozo zitangotha ​​komanso mapazi anga atanyamuka, ndimakhala ndi nthawi yosinkhasinkha, kuganiza, ndikubwezeretsanso. Ndinayambanso kumverera zaufulu zomwe zimadza chifukwa chothamanga, ndipo ndidazindikira momwe ndaphonyera.

Ndiloleni ndifotokoze momveka bwino: Kukhala wathanzi sikunali njira yachangu. Sizinachitike mwadzidzidzi kapena mkati mwa mwezi umodzi wa ziwiri. Ndinayang'ana pa zolinga zazing'ono; imodzi panthawi. Tsiku lililonse ndinkapita patsogolo pang'ono, ndiyeno ndinathamanga pang'ono. Ndinatenga nthawi yofufuza nsapato zabwino kwambiri pamapazi anga, kuphunzira njira yolondola yotambasulira, ndikuphunzitsidwa momwe ndimayendera. Kudzipereka kwanga konse kunapindula chifukwa pamapeto pake mailo imodzi inasandulika awiri, iwiri inasandulika itatu, kenako patatha chaka chimodzi, ndinathamanga ma 10 mamailosi. Ndimakumbukirabe tsiku limenelo; Ndinalira chifukwa panali patadutsa zaka 15 chichokereni komweko.

Nditafika pachimake, ndinazindikira kuti ndikhoza kukwaniritsa zolinga zomwe ndinakhala ndikuyamba kufunafuna vuto lalikulu. Sabata imeneyo ndidaganiza zolembetsa nawo mpikisano wa MORE/SHAPE Women's Half Marathon ku New York City. (Onani zikwangwani zabwino kwambiri zakumapeto kwa mpikisano wa 2016.) Pofika nthawi imeneyo, ndinali nditataya mapaundi 50 ndekha chifukwa chothamanga, koma ndimadziwa kuti ndiyenera kusakaniza ngati ndikufuna kupitiriza kuwona kupita patsogolo. Choncho ndinalimba mtima chifukwa cha mantha a nthawi yaitali komanso ndinalowa nawo gulu lochitira masewera olimbitsa thupi. (Ngakhale simunathamange tsiku mmoyo wanu, mutha kumaliza mzerewo. Apa: Gawo ndi Gawo Gawo Kuphunzitsidwa kwa Marathon kwa Oyamba Nthawi Yoyamba.)

Sindinadziwe zomwe ndingasangalale kupatula kuthamanga, kotero ndinayesa msasa wa boot, TRX, ndikuzungulira (zonse zomwe ndimakondabe ndikuchita pafupipafupi), koma sizinali zonse zopambana. Ndinaphunzira kuti sindinali oyenerera ku Zumba, ndimangoseka kwambiri panthawi ya yoga, ndipo pamene ndinkakonda masewera a nkhonya, ndinaiwala kuti sindine Muhammad Ali ndi ma discs awiri omwe adandipatsa mankhwala opweteka a miyezi itatu. Chidwi changa chachikulu kwambiri chosowa, komabe? Kuphunzitsa kunenepa. Ndinalemba ntchito mphunzitsi amene anandiphunzitsa mfundo zonyamulira zitsulo. Tsopano ndimachita masewera olimbitsa thupi masiku asanu pa sabata, zomwe zimandipangitsa kukhala wamphamvu komanso wamphamvu m'njira yatsopano.

Sizinali mpaka nditathamanga mpikisano wa Spartan Super chilimwe chathachi ndi mwamuna wanga pomwe ndidazindikira momwe ndafikira paulendo wanga wochepetsa thupi, kukhala wathanzi, komanso kungokhala wondisangalatsa. Sikuti ndidangomaliza mpikisano wovuta wa ma 8.5 mamailosi, koma ndidabwera pa 38 pagulu langa, mwa opitilira 4,000!

Palibe mwa izi chomwe chinali chophweka ndipo palibe chomwe chidachitika mwachangu-patha zaka zinayi kuyambira tsiku lomwe ndidayamba kuvala nsapato zanga-koma sindingasinthe kalikonse. Tsopano anthu akafunsa momwe ndinayambira kuchoka pa saizi 22 mpaka kukula 6, ndimawauza kuti ndidazichita kamodzi. Koma kwa ine sizokhudza kukula kwa zovala kapena momwe ndimawonekera, ndizokhudza zomwe ndingachite.
