Running, How I Missed Thee…

let me count the ways.

  1. The sun came out and shone on me as I got all sweaty… ah vitamin D! Does a body good.
  2. My legs got sore and tired and it felt AWESOME to being HTFU’ing my way to the end of a hard long run.
  3. My tension and stress is all but gone and I’ve got endorphins to spare (one might say, in fact, endorphins for orphans… but I digress and that is maybe a little tasteless… sorry, I watch family guy and laugh (HARD). I am low brow)
  4. When I got home I did a nice long stretching session and it felt great like only a nice long stretching session can feel when it is after a nice long run and everything is warm and loose.
  5. I ran the longest I have ever run. I went out planning to push it a little and I did, I ran 7.2K!!!!! It took me about an hour and 5 minutes. I am a one hour runner. I rock.

There you go folks. I never want to take a long hiatus from running again. Running feeds a part of me that food can’t fill up and it makes life sweeter and hell we all need a bit of that. I think I’m riding out the world’s best runner’s high right now and having not felt it in a while it makes me want to giggle and sing and dance all at one. If you haven’t run in a while, lace up your friggin shoes and get out there mate!!

  1. Whoohooo! 7.2 k is great. Won’t be long and you’ll be hitting 10!

  2. Yeah I’m pretty darn chuffed to think that 10K could be a reality some day before too long. I’m thinking I will run 10 for my birthday and that is pretty cool!

  3. I love you.
    I do not feel this:
    I never want to take a long hiatus from running again.

    I must not love the running ;) —— yet.
