9/21

Today's plan: run
Ah, Mother Nature.  Always keeping our weathermen guessing.  This weekend was supposed to be warm and sunny. Yesterday was cool and windy. This morning when I walked out in a short sleeve shirt and vest it was raining on me. Went and out and fed the horse, came back in to get a long sleeved fleece and ran anyway.
I told my husband I was only doing 2m and would be back shortly. It was the best I had felt all week--the blasted stitch in my ribs miraculously disappeared. When I hit the mile mark to go back, I just kept going.  Eventually I had to go back, I promised french toast to the husband.
These days are the reason I run. Everything just flows. I out ran my music (having picked a short play list for a short run), and my breathing was smooth and even, my feet hitting the ground regularly. A run like that is worth every sucky run I had earlier in the week and why I continue to run.
