i love days like this. i meant to run shorter--both in total distance and distance of hard miles. but less than a half mile into it i found that contrary to my plan i was already running hard, so i just followed my stride and kept going. i altered my course to take advantage of the canal roads (still in so jo and will be tomorrow as it's snowing pretty bad up north, so i hear. my car, which i affectionately call Tainted Love, does well in the snow, but alas, she has only the drive of two wheels. thus i sit by my parents' fireplace to grade papers and write this). Well, despite the fact that the bit of snow we received this morning has already melted, today's canal roads weren't nearly as mucky as yesterday's. there was muck, but not much. Anywho, the run went well though i wish i would have pushed it a little harder. i'm in better shape than i thought. great discover. Yay (as my little sister spells it). i've also discovered that i might want to increase my dosage of inhaler. Boo. (as everyone spells it). So there you have it. I'm ready to rock and roll. |
