"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

9 miles - commute to work. nice overcast sky.

pm - 9 miles commute home. this is the shortest route between work and home. i usually extend these commute runs but i'm nine days out from the marathon and my taper starts tomorrow so i decided to just get it done and not push anything...non overcast skies, but okay at 90F with some breezes.
