The distance, easy
5 miles without stopping once,
on a cool grey day
Inspirational quote from Kara Goucher:
Progress is rarely a straight line. There are always bumps in the road, but you can make the choice to keep looking ahead.

Thick ominous clouds
Sunlight trying to rip through
Murky quirky day
Gusts of wind blowing
Big storm on the horizon
Child’s eyes wide open

Please turn on the heat
I need a break from the cold
Summer rescue me
I know we don’t have it as bad down here in North Carolina as some others, but this deep freeze is tough on us. We got hit with a combo yesterday, snow, sleet, and freezing rain. The world looks like the top of a glazed doughnut outside – mmmm doughnuts – and it may not thaw much until tomorrow. So how do you deal with the cold? What gets you through it?
I watch as the day,
drifts from bright to grey to black
A storm approaching
Cool clouds hanging low
Sunlight trapped behind the grey
Four miles, legs felt great

Cool run this morning
I had to wear the long sleeves,
and some running gloves
Mustard colored light
Proceeds a thundering storm
As day moves to dusk
Running my butt off –
going for seven long miles.
Know what? I did it.
I haven’t done this distance since early May of this year.
Just happy to get back to it.
This Haiku was running through my head for most of it.
I love this cooler weather.
Grey storm clouds parting
Turning the sky into fire
Day ends in a blaze
