"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

13.1 miles - bryce canyon half marathon this morning. a couple of friends invited me to come along with them to run this race and although i'm not really running or training these days i thought it would be good to see if i can still even run 13 miles. it turned out being a great weekend, what a beautiful area to hang out in. the race was a lot of fun, i ran a time of 1:52:48, which frankly surprised me as i was hoping to maybe break 2 hours. so all in all a worthwhile trip and hopefully i can keep up a little running throughout the rest of the year and perhaps get back at it for real in 2017.
