Notes
1 part junk mileage, 2 parts soul-searching, half a remembrance of days gone by, and half a glimpse towards the future...
I thoroughly enjoyed reading Jeff Edmond's eulogy to Van Townsend. Whenever I read about the amazing people in this crazy sport of running I've never met... it's nice to be reminded of the great friends I've made through running. Funny how I discovered Mike's old post on "The Original Random Hammerfest" immediatedly after reading about Townsend. Timely for both, considering I just finished reading "Peter Pan" to the boys. That has had me thinking about growing up, getting old, and dwelling far to much on what kind of life I should've pursued, or will pursue... I guess I just need to sit back and appreciate life as it is. Go. Do. Leave the second-guessing to others.
It is good to be a runner. There's much to be gained from a steady run out in the cold, dark of night... it might not solve all of my problems, but it sure helps to put them in their place.
