ARSHS. Early early a.m. It has been awhile since I've ran here solo but kinda looking forward to a time for me to think. It seemed yucky when I woke up but it was actually just barely sprinkling. When I got to the track it was so delightful to see it all lite up and the gate open. It was goregous! All the big football lights were on. I was thinking, "Thank you, God, is this your way of saying good morning to me?" It was just inspiring to not be running in the dark. And boy was it fully lite! Everything felt different. A little tired this morning but pushed myself to run at a fast speed today. Did fine. Lane 5, 11 laps, switching directions. Again it was just so nice to have the light on the track!!! No pains.
