Runstreak Day #95 - not a group runner... again...

I tried to run with a group
But the stress
Pressed
Against my chest
Tight
Sharp
Breath
Heart racing
Pacing
Up and down
Dithering
Delaying
'I'll go in a bit', saying...

Until I didn't.

I stopped.
And breathed.
And let go.
Not forcing
Not joining
Not being with others
Not having to push
Nor feeling the tide
Of panic
Rising.

And so I ran
Alone
And free and quiet
And calm and happy
And I got to be
Me.
