"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

| | Spent the day dealing with sprinkler system issues. No heavy lifting, just lots of digging, sawing, glueing, 2 trips to Home Depot, exposure to heat all day, shook up my eating/drinking routine, frustration, etc. Now I'm stiff from being bent over for hours. No run. Good times!

| | Early lunch. Sun, 74 degrees. Bluff trail out and back. Felt good at mile 6 so I did 6 x 2 mins. @ 7:30 avg with equal recovery. Then I basically bombed the last mile and a half.

5:57 AM. 7 miles. Clear, 59 degrees. Round the hood/LPT etc. Moving really slow this morning. Passed a smoker, inhaled 2nd hand smoke...what's that, like, 48 seconds taken off my life? Early lunch run. 6 more. Clear, 80 degrees. One mile boardwalk loops at the nature preserve. There was a tour group out there today, about thirty people. I ran the opposite direction they were going. The boardwalk is 6 feet wide, as I was approaching the goup on the first lap, they parted for me and I ran through the middle of the group while they cheered, gave me high five's etc. It was pretty cool!

Well, I'm not going to run today. Gasp! I'm pretty worn out for some reason. I feel fatigued all the time lately. I'm hoping an easy week will help me get rested and get the miles I need over the next six weeks to prepare for TOU, before the taper. It's 100 degrees today! For lunch I'll go get me a couple of books I've been wanting to read, "Born To Run", and "Once A Runner", and some GU since I've got to do some longer runs here soon. Good times! Add: I also picked up a book called "Why We Run" by Bernd Heinrich. Looks pretty darned interesting.

| | Nice run this morning on the pipeline trail in Millcreek canyon with Lysa (on the blog) and Scott (not on the blog). Good to catch up with old friends, running in a beautful place on a beautiful summer morning!
