"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

| | 8.6 miles / 1:15:00 / 8:43 avg. Early lunch run from work. Sunny, 39 degrees. Took quite awhile to warm up today. One of the greatest feelings is when the body finally loosens up, the effort becomes easy, and the body feels strong. Mile splits: 9:26, 9:14, 9:03, 8:35, 8:34, 8:32, 8:30, 8:15, + .6 mi. @ 8:07 pace. Hey whattayouknow - an unintentional progression run!

| | 6 miles / 47:33 / 7:55 avg. Lunch run, Bluff trail. Overcast, 39 degrees. I didn't pick a good day to try to run hard. I struggled the whole way and just never opened up. Still a good effort for me. Mile splits: 8:15, 8:00, 7:59, 7:53, 7:53, 7:30.

| | 10 miles / 1:23:28 / 8:20 avg. Late run (2:30 PM) on the legacy parkway trail. Sunny, 47F. Shorts, glove liners, and for the first time in several weeks just a single long sleeve top. Suffered through some gastrointestinal acrobatics throughout the run. Actually had to "stop and drop" in mile 9. Very rare for me. It might have been the Great Harvest ham and cheese sandwich I had for lunch. I snarfed it down pretty quickly and only about a half hour before the run. Mile splits, 8:55, 8:23, 8:32, 8:31, 8:27, 7:51, 8:04, 8:13, 8:29, 8:00.
Rest tomorrow.

| | Easy medium-long run. 14.2 miles / 9:04 avg. Cloudy, sunny, light rain at times, low 40's. Was planning on a longer run but the body wouldn't cooperate so I cut it short. I'm fine with having an off day. What concerns me though is the idea that an off day could fall on race day. If I felt like this in the first ten miles of a marathon, I'd have to just drop out. Happy to get in the miles today in spite of the lack of energy and heavy legs. No computer access for me until tomorrow night. What will I do with all that free time?
