Lot of stuff going on in our little world. Work, good work. Very good work. Not just for me (though I reflect on that at length in my writing blog) but for all four of us.
I want to, need to be sure to strike a balance between the mind work and the body work. Karl and I were discussing that around the fire in Athens last week, you can push so hard in pursuit of a goal, but once the (literal) race has been run, you can just stand still, and wonder what is left for you to do.
This is true about figurative races as well, you know.
The people around me set a good example, the children are very physically active, and the wife continues successfully with her routine. There are laments, not enough time to get the running in, too many days between workouts. But that's just totally normal. We all feel that.
Distance: 3.2 miles
Avg Pace: 7:37
Route: Boulevard Loop
My goal for the marathon was to run an average pace of 8:30. Did I mention I made 8:29? That's how I did that.
The list of posts at right are the most popular posts in my nine-plus years of keeping this blog. That accumulative, so it takes quite a many view to jump into the list. I don't know why most of them are there, except for passing references to Impossibly Photogenic Guy or Jenn Shelton or perhaps a very popular song lyric.
However, I was very happy to see the TCM post make the top 10. Thanks for that.
Temperature: 43°
Climate: cool and overcast ... hail?
Weight: 158 lbs.
Mood: very glad to be working out
Obsessively eating these days. Mostly almonds, though, so that's better than the alternative.
What's That Lyric?
Let My Love Open the Door * - Pete Townshend
