"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

Computer at home is currently waiting for a new power cord. So I'm pre-blogging my run, which will occur after work today, and is of undetermined distance at this point in time. I will update tomorrow when I'm back to work.

6:07 AM. 20.1 miles.  Sun, temps ranging from 65 to 73 degrees. Ran from house down Clark Lane, South through "The Ranches", some quality miles in the bird refuge, East on Glovers, South on the Cattle Rd. and back North on the cattle rd, up Glovers to the LPT, North back to Clark Lane then East to home. Everything was cool until about mile 15, then it was all a struggle to get done.
