Weather - 78 degrees, sunny. Spent the afternoon painting the house. I started this project in May, and today I finally finished. It was like an ultramarathon - if I contemplated the amount of time and work that needed to be completed, I would have given up long ago. Instead, I practiced my Zen, one brush stroke at a time, and 5 months later, I have a newly painted house. After finishing off the house, I ran 4.5 miles at dusk. I am feeling pretty good these days in spite of my allergies. Running easy every day has given me a much needed rest from fast running. I know this is the Fast Running blog, but I can't run hard year round. After this Saturday's 32 miler (1 mile was lopped off the course due to flooding) I plan on running easy for 5-6 weeks, maybe even until the new year. #332
