No flashing/vibrating lines, nausea, or headache when I awoke. But I could hear howling wind and pelting snow hit the window panes. I went downstairs to wait for Josse while I stretched. The rocking chairs on the front porch were rocking madly in the wind, and when Josse drove up, I could see the snow flying sideways in the headlights. Here's what I love about running; it instantly qualifies your friends. Will she, or won't she? ( in this weather). When she says what you would say (which is: I got up, I'm here, I'm running) you know you got a keeper. That plus she brought her own dog. There are girls who run fast, and who win races -- but when talent is their only driving force-- those same girls are are often wimpy and lazy in other ways. So there we were running with our three dogs, in sideways snow hitting our eyeballs, in the tall trees and pitch black pre-dawn. It's nice to have a friend who will run in a blizzard with you, and also tell you interesting stories about life. I'm just sorry for her sake, I can't run any faster. |
