Since my last post, Ive logged in 2 runs.

One was 6 miles - uninteresting and a 14 miler this morning/afternoon. Its been a revelation working out in the middle of the day in this humidity. It challenges my mind and body in ways that I may not have fully appreciated a few years ago. Its nice to willingly switch off the sounds of traffic around you in the middle of the day. One sweats more than ever - people stare at you more than ever and you know what I realised? I really dont care :-) and *that* is freeing.

Compartmentalizing feelings and emotions in my head right now means that I am able to be happy again atleast some of the time. I still find joy in small things and it keeps things sane, simple and child-like. And thank God for that! I asked for strength to be able to finish my run today - I stopped twice but had to carry on - there was no other way to come back home!

14 miles 125 minutes!
