"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

Complete and utter rest today. (Except for the mowing of the lawn, the washing of the dishes and the shopping of the food).
I loved reading the race reports from yesterday. Runners are a special breed... |

Early lunch run. Not early enough. I don't know what the temp was when I started, but it was 84 degrees when I got back.
I was going to run this morning but got woken up several times throughout the night. At 3:00 AM I was listening to the sound of a dog urinating on the wood floor in the kitchen...so I had to get up and clean that up. It's been a while since I last had to clean up dog urine in the house, I've really missed it. |

6:00 AM - 9 miles from the house to LPT out and back. Cloudy, light, 65F, some light rain for a bit.
My legs have been tired all week, today was no exception.
1:00 PM - 5 easy one mile loops on the boardwalk at the nature preserve. Sunny, 71 degrees and 10 mph breezes to cool me down. It's funny how in the winter even a 1 mph headwind will make me angry, but when it's hot outside almost any wind is a relief. |

Got out for an early lunch (10:30 AM) on the Bluff trail. Sun, 75F, light breeze.
Comparing todays run to yesterdays is like night and day; yesterday being nightmarish, today being all day-glo and happiness.
Got my 50 miles this week so I'm going to take a much needed day off tommorrow, which means only 5 days running this week (I took Sunday off also), so I can rest, and so I can get back on my Sunday through Friday running schedule for the Summer. |
