"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

 7 miles from work - minority/sherwood/valeria loop. 4 x 30 second hill reps on golden ave. 8:52 avg.

6 months of downtime is over, back to running again. it's good to take some breaks here and there, but i let myself get completely out of shape this year. in times past, it was easy to whip myself back into condition. but this time has been a long slow slog. so remember kids, and by kids i mean those over 40 years old: if you're currently fit...STAY FIT!!
