Personal:

"Engaging in a little suffering — however self-imposed, arbitrary and contrived — before breakfast each morning tends to demand some humility and injects some marked relief into the rest of the day, making things sharper, more inspired, more immediately aware of the powerful presence of being. And that seems really worthwhile." A. Krupicka

 

"I cruised down hills, churned up hills, and floated over the asphalt, existing in a world that seemed to lack the confinements of such ubiquitous rivets as time, obligation, or pain. I knew then that this was destined to be one of those serendipitous runs for which so many of 
us strive yet so rarely achieve." J. Nevels

11 miles / easy - from work/ northeastern territory. got chased by a couple of dogs for about a block until some kid in a honda pulled up to me and said he didn't know whose dogs they were but he'd run over them for me and he proceeded to turn right in front of the lead dog. he didn't hit them but it stopped them, i gave him a thankful wave and carried on. i love dogs. some dog owners are very irresponsible.
