Today is supposed to be the last of our cold, rainy days. I will be very happy to see them in the rear view mirror. Since today is the first official day of summer I feel like the time is just slipping past me. It seems like it was just yesterday that I was looking forward to spring. Then it was Memorial Day, now it is summer, and the 4th of July is right around the corner. Summer is happening with or without me, and with all this crappy weather we've been having I feel like it left me behind. Well, me and everyone else in the northern part of this state.
Tomorrow is our long run day so hopefully I can get another 14 miler in, only this time without any interference from other people, beasts or just plain interference - period. I just want to run down 14 miles of road and have everyone pretend like I'm not there. Well, pretend only as far as harassment goes, I want them to see me so they don't hit me., which is another issue all together.
I was reading about another blogger's training for a marathon and it made me want to do another marathon. Of course, this has been percolating under the surface for quite some time. It only went away for awhile when I had that quad issue at the first of the year. But last week's 14 miler went really well and it did fuel the spark a bit. But I'm sure that spark will get quashed by the hot, warm days of summer ahead. Assuming it really will ever get hot. Just where has global warming been anyway? It sure hasn't hit this state. Oops, getting off track . . .
I'm a big believer in the concept that people need to say what they want. Otherwise, you may never get it. I feel very comfortable with saying what I want. I figure that increases my odds of getting what I actually want, not what someone thinks I might want. (I tell hubby he's very lucky this way, I spell it out for him). Anyway, I want:
That's all . . . that's all I want . . . for now.to run (at least) 14 miles without being assaulted by any other person or"thing", and to feel strong doing so.
