| 90 minute run in Forest Park. First 30 minutes sucked--my small headache got worse, my ankles were so stiff that I had to stop every 10 minutes to stretch, and the wind was so cold and stiff that it blew right through my hat and froze my ears. To top it off, I forgot my MP3 player, which gets me through long runs and staves off the boredom that comes sometimes from running alone. I plugged along and after half an hour I got into a zone. My ankles and legs warmed up, my head felt better, the wind died down, and I was in a nice place where my mind wasn't racing or bored, just absorbing and once in a while turning to the summer and fall. A good run in the end. |
