Notes

It's been a while since I've run, my current sleep quotient isn't favorable and I have the BAA Half on 13 Oct 13 (12 days). The time listed is approximate, I purposely didnot time the run the way I have in the past. With the tight timeline of this upcoming run, I don't want to feel the pressure of not "performing better." That has given me a freedom, I really enjoyed the run today, as I felt no pressure to run faster, but I wanted to personnaly run as fast as I could (if that makes sense). The run was a bit cool--as I wore my long sleeve. Tommy A's cows weren't out (they haven't been for a while) but it was a beautiful run none the less. Oh, I will tell you how good it feels that I'm able to run (non-stop...as always) 11 miles, that makes me feel great and give me some sort of freedom I can't explain. I may be getting older, but f*ck that, I can ans will perform the best "I" can. I just wish other's had this wisdom....get out there and take care of you body....it doesn't have to be running...because in ways I'm free like others can't even understand or describe. Not sure why I felt like writing this all today, I just know--even with a spotty training record, I can run 11.0 miles.....and be able to function the rest of the day, and tomorrow, with little to no issues. Now that's freedom!
