[Insert Pitch Fork here!] Since our "long" run yesterday was cut short by the snow, a small group of us decided to get a few more miles in this morning (being sure not to interfere with anyone's church schedule). In order to protect the anonymity of the other sinners, I won't name names. We even had a good conversation about why God would want us to run on Sunday since it's something we enjoy, it relieves stress, etc. :o)
We met at Wheeler Farm at 7:00 for a little trail run through the park (complete with a geese attack -- I have to laugh because I had never before encountered a mean goose). Then we ran along Vine Street to the amphitheater-side of Murray Park. Hardly any traffic along the course. We finished the run with another lap around the park; this time avoiding the geese. This was a beautiful run -- so serene and calming.
Highlights of this run: chilly morning with lots of sunshine, Murphy and Jaxton playing, exploring new trails, seeing the baby geese (I know; they're called gosslings), Yoga class afterwards to stretch my muscles, a two-hour nap. Could it get any better than that!? |
