"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

10 miles easy  from work - east rainbow loop. late run today. really low on energy lately and have no idea why. physically it's tough but the worst is the mental aspect of it. this morning i gave up on running for good. not really but i'm playing that kind of game in my head. ridiculous. finally got out around 1:30 with a break in the rain. so i had great conditions with just light rain and breezes and perfect temps in the upper 30's.

10 miles / 8:35 avg. from work - rio grande north. 3 miles easy, 5 miles @ mp (target  8:00 per mile - ran 7:58 avg), 2 miles easy to finish. the tempo felt harder than it should have - but i was tired from the beginning so it made for good marathon training.
