i jogged alone

i did it. i finally did it.
i went jogging alone yesterday for the first time. yes, alone. all those previous jogs i take were with friends, never alone. but yesterday when my housemate who said that she was not feeling well could not go, i still decided to go alone.
i was soo fired up to go jogging this week (the only one time this week) that i went ahead although there was thunder rolling in the sky not far away when i set out of the house.

it was kind of exhilarating. at the beginning, it was more of anxiety that i felt.
i was thinking- could i finish the normal distance (about 4km) since the hiatus? would i be alone running on this quiet track? would i be 'disturbed' by passers-by on motorbikes and cars?
luckily i saw a few familiar faces and i found that i could manage the distance. however, it was sad to note that i was the only female.

was it dangerous? i don't know. i tried not to think about it. i didn't even stop at the normal gathering place. i just hit the road as soon as i saw the road stretching in front of me.

i'll make sure to start earlier next time. this won't be my only time jogging alone. i have to get used to it. but the next jog alone won't come so soon. 2 weeks break in tm. maybe can go jogging with dad at the estate.
