PICK UP THE PACE

I began running again after recovering from an injury I incurred 7 months ago.  While it's slow to get going, it feels great.  I noticed during my run today that often times a song will come on that makes me pick up the pace with my run.   I usually hesitate and then realize I can go faster and usually feel better at the end for doing so.  While increasing my speed today, I was thinking about my job as a school counselor and how it's easy to stay at the same pace, status quo, if you will, and coast along.  Then I thought about the upcoming Leadership Development Institute (LDI) and #ASCA13 conference in Philly and I realized how excited I get to go and be re-energized and connect with friends from around the country.  I think #ASCA13 might just be my "Pick Up The Pace" song this year.  :)
