"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

took last week off for an intense period at work i wanted to focus on. was going to start up again yesterday but a few days ago i developed a severe piriformis/nerve pain in my right leg. made it hard to stand up from sitting or getting out of bed etc. it’s a pretty sharp pain but i notice that once i’m up and moving around for awhile it starts feeling significantly better. decided to try a run today and it was fine.

2 miles - treadmill - very easy pace - i guess i'm officially in rehab mode now for this priformis issue. after two weeks it's still almost as painful so i'm doing a lot of stretches everyday and i'll run easy when i feel up to it. today i walked a 1/4 mile, ran 2 miles, then walked another mile at a quick pace.
