Describing The Nexus of Distance Running and The Law.

Monday, July 16, 2007

I had not run in three days.
Though, I have trained intensely on the elliptical and bike. But I am in the vortex of endurance season. The Tour is in full swing. Triathlon is on major networks. And I’m not running.

I’m just lying in bed. (Well, not really… but the metaphor is apt)

I have a litmus test of joy – When I wake up in the morning, if I am ready to train because I want to, I do just that. Out of free will and passion for sport. Not because I “Must” If I have the slightest notion of drudgery, I go back to bed.

My life is an a joint of promise and understanding. It has become a linchpin of my future. But I have also achieved balance.

Today I ran in the AM. The leg felt exponentially better than the last time I tried it out. Work went well, but my special someone I only got to speak with for a moment or two (oh technology I loathe thee)

Then came back for a strength spin-class. I have found that structure in workout truly does produce visible and emotional results. I must have sweat out approximetly 2 pounds of fluid. Good stuff.

Good stuff, indeed.
