The most extraordinary thing about today's run is how ordinary it was in almost every respect. It wasn't too hot or too cold. It wasn't too dark or too light. It wasn't too hard or too easy. I didn't run too fast or too slow. I wasn't overly rested when I got up, but I wasn't dragging either. I didn't see any creatures moving around in the dark. I didn't see any suspicious activity of any kind. I saw two ladies out walking, but it would have been more extraordinary if I hadn't seen anybody. My instep was a little sore starting out, but even that pretty much disappeared during the run. |
