It only hurts for a minute

"Pain is weakness leaving the body."

2 miles: chilly, trail, solo

Cold

I was planning on walking today with Bear. We got to the beginning of the trail and I was still pretty chilly. I thought "I should just run...I'll be warmer", so I did.

1.4 miles: cold, on the trail, with Bear-dog

Squirrels

"My 5k time would be so much better if I could bring my dog...on a leash...and some one ran in front of him...with a squirrel...on a leash..."



2 miles today: on the trail, warm&breezy, with Bear dog

Burning

Today I ran 3.3 miles. Farthest I've ran since before I got hurt. All I was thinking today was  "My legs are burning. My chest is burning."  Not exactly motivational, but there you go.

Steel

"Running is my personal, daily chance to decide whether I am made of butter or of steel; not just my body, but my mind."

Post run trail walk/photo shot with Bear (:

  He runs, too.

And poses.

And swims.
