"I ran to be free; I ran to avoid pain; I ran to feel pain; I ran out of love and hate and anger and joy." - Dagny Scott, Runner's World Complete Book of Women's Running
Thank goodness for cooler temperatures! Tonight's run was a pleasure. It has been a while since I truly enjoyed a short run. Lately it has felt a bit like drudgery. Tonight I feel revived and excited about this process again. I am noticing that my body is wanting to go back to its old sedentary lifestyle lately. Well it's either my body or my brain. I can't tell where the desire to lay around and do nothing comes from. I wonder if I will ever know. What I DO know is that it is getting harder and harder to drag my ass out there. I think the excitement of the early days of training and the satisfaction of the subsequent milestones has worn off and I am getting tired. I wonder if I will get revived in the last weeks before the event...we will see.
