Back story, I was a decent runner back 17 years ago in high school. Cross country. I have ran here and there since but always in the back of my mind I knew my purpose was to run. Where? I don't know. But life took over and alcohol was more fun. I have since dried because of understanding signs of what road I'm going down. With a few hiccups along the way I'm not drinking. I just ran for the first time in 17 years a 22 min and change 5k. But I feel there is something tugging me to run further and faster away from drinking. I have always struggled to find my purpose and always known it had something to do with me on the road running a race or a goal... not sure what.
Might be a long shot but has anyone ever felt like this and where might it lead? I'm I just simply replacing a bad addiction with a good addiction?
