Personal:

Started running in November 2007 to get fit. Now I'm back almost to square one after back surgery. I did it once and I'll do it again.

"In truth, runners don't race other runners. They race against themselves: to conquer their wills, to transcend their weaknesses, to beat back their nightmares. And while a runner can't actually beat himself, he can beat his time. Even years into running, he can get better."  Running for His Life by Michael Hall.

1045PM:  Easy, slow run with strong winds and lightning on the horizon.  It was an awesome show.  The thunderstorm had departed but it was still putting on quite a display to the west.  Ran against the wind on the way out and with it on the way back, but I was already tired by then.

940PM:  Finally started a run before sunset.  The cut on my foot from the pressure washer is hurting more now than it did when I got the cut last week.  I was still able to speed things up a bit over the last 2.5M.  8:32/mi pace overall.

Easy, slow run.  Probably my last this week due to so many things going on this holiday weekend.  Going fish all day tomorrow.  Wife's birthday on Saturday, etc, etc.
