September 9, 2010

(9)
It's a lovely cool morning... perfect for a run. Instead of dragging my tired butt out of bed at 5:30 when my eyes popped open, I procrastinated until everyone else was off to school, work, grandmas... and I had run a couple errands. Slacked off for a few days, but stepped out of the house, sneakers on, dog on leash, with the attitude to take it slow and easy today and just put in some comfortable time joggin. Waved to a couple neighbors, got passed by a nice retired couple on bikes, and at one point 2/3 of the way through the run when I thought was going slow I realized that I was actually pickin 'em up & puttin 'em down. Funny how the body knows how to run and when you disconnect the mind a little and let it go, you can push yourself a bit harder physically. Now that I'm done, it seemed so easy today. I love those days!
So, we missed getting hit by the rainstorm, enjoyed the cool quietness of the day and accomplished a major goal.
On to bigger (piles of laundry) and better (cup o coffee) things for the rest of the day.
Happy trails.
