Maybe I'm a runner now?

Over the course of the last few weeks, I have gone from not being able to run a quarter of a mile without being winded to being able to run a steady mile without stopping. My goal is still to be able to run a 5k (3.1 miles) without stopping, but I'm closer than I was before. More then learning the skill of running, I have been surprised at the amount of resources and  support I have received from my digital learning community. 

Here are a couple of the amazing things I have learned from my digital community: 

• I have found multiple playlists to use while running. 
• From "checking in" on different trail and running paths, I have had digital friends reach out to me to make me aware of other great paths. 
  
• The running app that I'm using has helped me to keep track of and calculate my average mile time. This help me to push harder to break the previous record. 

I think by sharing my journey on this blog it has helped me to open my eyes to how beneficial our digital resources are. This has definitely helped to change my digital identity because I was more private before starting this journey. Now, I feel more confident about sharing my struggles so I can learn from others.
