And sometimes it is good...

Thursday I went for a run at Rancho San Antonio open space park with some of my friends. This time the fast guys got there first and started before I got there.. so my 'slower' friends waited for me. The three of us ran and talked and ran. Then I got to show them a different route to run .. one that goes over a different big hill, with a different view of the San Francisco bay and a different meadow where turkeys and deer were browsing in the afternoon sun. We ran about 5 miles.. and when we finished we felt good, not too tired (though it was not an easy route) and not too fresh. That perfect point of goodness you get every once in a while on a run.

And I felt like a runner again. And that was good.

Going to run at another of my favorite places tomorrow for 14 miles or so, with some more good friends... then breakfast and talking and hanging out. That will be good too.

Awesome Nissa. Those are the runs that make it all worthwhile, right? I'm glad you had one now - you deserved it!
