"Engaging in a little suffering — however self-imposed, arbitrary and contrived — before breakfast each morning tends to demand some humility and injects some marked relief into the rest of the day, making things sharper, more inspired, more immediately aware of the powerful presence of being. And that seems really worthwhile." A. Krupicka
"I cruised down hills, churned up hills, and floated over the asphalt, existing in a world that seemed to lack the confinements of such ubiquitous rivets as time, obligation, or pain. I knew then that this was destined to be one of those serendipitous runs for which so many of
us strive yet so rarely achieve." J. Nevels

| | i chose to not run today. expect more of the same throughout the month of january. really enjoying the downtime. anticipating a lot of quality x-training with the shoveling of the snow over the next couple of days.

| | a full week with no run. i feel awesome! so this break has given me a new perspective about this running blog. in the back of my mind are little creeping doubts about getting back to the mileage in a couple of weeks. will i have the motivation? do i even want to keep running consistently this year, and keep trying to incrementally bring down my race times etc? checking in on other runners everyday here on the blog and reading about their workouts and experiences is so motivating! right now my mind and body are in hibernation mode, but i can feel the excitement percolating in the back of my "being". and that's in large part because i'm able to stay in touch with the spirit of this crazy sport through Fast Running Blog. so, you know, thanks fellow bloggers.

i was going to run today but work got crazy, and it's cold, and i AM taking the month of January off basically - so i just let it go. maybe tomorrow. my purpose this month is to put running on the back burner, which is actually easier than it sounds. my weight is starting to creep up. i'm living the dream.

| | even though the running is very sparse this month, i'm still trying to keep my blog active with posts like this one which say nothing. in terms of weather conditions i picked a good month to take a break. well, that's all for now. it was nice visiting with you all. have a great day.

| | more time off... i have been getting plenty of physical activity though with my new snow removal x-training regimen. i'm excited to see how my body responds to having a month basically off from running, followed by a six week build up to a half marathon. meanwhile, i'm morphing into quite the fatty.

6 miles for lunch on the rio grande - south / 8:43 avg. january stats: 7 runs 47.6 miles (6.8 miles avg. per run) 6 pounds gained. this month long break was just what i needed. i feel rested and recovered (and fat). and mentally i am looking forward to building up some mileage again. WT 11 miles
