Without vices or devices
Sometimes a girl’s got to let down her hair and let go. It can feel a little unnatural. Leaving all worries behind is easier said than done. But it sure is freeing.
The ability to enjoy a little bit of freedom from the routine is good thing. It’s something we all can benefit from.
While taper time can be maddening, it is also a time where there is a lot of room for carefree running. You remember what that is, don’t you? It’s running without worrying about distances or pace. Without vices or devices.
I bagged the corporate lunch, pulled on my run-wear, and slipped out for a short run. I left — without watch, GPS, MP3, or other electronic gadget.
Within minutes, the crunch-crunch of the dirt-under-foot lulled me into a nice rhythm. The familiar sound was music to my ears, and the feel was magic to my feet.
Oh, did I mention that the sun is back?

Life is a journey and, for me, running is a huge part of it. Just like a great run, it has easy and tough parts. It is beautiful at times and ugly at others. Hopefully, I will reach the finish feeling good about what I have accomplished and leave a long trail of bread crumbs to show, those that wish to know, where I have been.
It’s almost here! You are about to live the dream. Very excited for you – you’ve been working toward this day for a long time!
