"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

4 miles - owensatch loop - i managed to acheive my mini goals for this month as i ease into training for the marathon in september.  i wanted 150 miles for the month, ended up with 155. also ran at least one 10 miler, and a 40 mile week. no injury so i feel ready to dive into some actual running these next several weeks.

815am - partly cloudy, mid 50's
