Age is just a number.

Just an easy 12 miles to work and back on the bike.  Brr.... It's starting to get a bit chilly now at night. Old man winter has entered the building.  Try some easy running tomorrow. 

I have a self imposed moratorium now; No more news financial or otherwise for a month as it's starting to get really depressing. Uplifting material only!  In light of that fact I think I'll take a nap now while I listen to some Beethoven. I really love his Eroica symphony for numerous reasons. One is that it has an interesting history behind Beethoven's motivation for composing it originally.     Dark Horse out.....

Went to see W tonight and despite how my family and others felt I was glad I did. Not because I'm Bush basher but because I am fascinated with the office of President and the men who hold that office.  I have to say that despite the clownlike attributes that were imposed by director Oliver Stone, I walked out of the theatre with a healthy dose of humility and respect for the man.  Why?   Because I could see that he was an imperfect man living in an imperfect world.   We expect so much out of our leaders,  much more than we expect of ourselves I believe.  There is so much that happens behind the world scene that we know very little about, and so much garbage that is fed to us by an agenda driven media.  We cannot know merely by what we see and hear from them.  This why for me I will choose a candidate this year not only on the basis of issues but also by the prompting and guidance of the Holy Ghost.  By no other way can I feel secure in the choice and judgement concerning our future leaders.    Dark Horse out....    

Finally... A run without pain.  Now that I work overnights I am running in the evening hours and without reflective gear it can be quite hazardous to your health!  Time to dust off that new reflective vest I won at the Riverton 10k. 

Interesting workout tonight, my form and quad mechanics felt strangely different. Most likely the result of riding the mountain bike for a month. Even my my legs are larger and my weight has gone up 10lbs.  That's ok though because I need the extra weight and reserves.  Not to mention the fact I look better physically.  Anyway, the run felt strong and smooth with the miles clicking off before I knew it.  No time taken though, just running loose and enjoying the time to think and relax.   Dark Horse out...
