Unexpected Detours

Sometimes life does not go as planned.

Sometimes you’re cruising down the road to one destination and you slam right into a DETOUR sign.

I was working hard to build up my fitness this summer. Hiking steeper and longer trails in order to prepare for a 14er in September.

There is no variety of exercise I love more than hiking. Even though I’ve had three foot surgeries and my foot and ankle surgeon told me to “find another hobby” two years ago.

Can you say stubborn?

Two weeks ago, I suffered another foot injury.

#$!@%#@!!!

Injuries happen. Life doesn’t always go the way we want it to go.

And – we cannot let that stop us from living our lives.

We can wallow in self-pity. Which, in all honesty, I have chosen from time to time over the past few weeks. Or we can make the most out of the detour.

Today I made a list of all the things I can still do + enjoy.

Sometimes a detour can be a gift (in disguise).

Plan A might have to go back on the shelf, but that shouldn’t stop us from making plans entirely.

Pivot.

Heal.

Trust the process.

Adapt to the curve balls life throws at us.

Redefine what is on the finish line.

💙 Robyn
