"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

5 miles / 37:54 / 7:35 avg. Late lunch run. Bluff trail. Sun, wind, temps in the upper 40's. The gentlest of tailwinds eased me out to where I turned around at 2.5 miles, then a gnarly, ferocious headwind wreaked havoc on my pace on the way back.
