I know J. already blogged about this but I don't think there are any rules about us being thankful about the same things, we just can't individually blog about the same thing twice.
I've been sick. Soooooo sick. I've tried to get my runs in here and there but they have been pathetic, sorry little runs. For those who know me, running is an integral, essential part of my day. Without a decent run, I become quite whiny and difficult to be around. So I've probably not been a ray of sunshine in the last while. BUT (big but) today I felt strong enough to try a longer run and I didn't have to take walk breaks every ten minutes. It felt so good! There's nothing like the feeling of finishing a good run all sweaty, empty yet exhilarated, sore but proud. It felt good to have one of those runs again. Oh - and I bought a new pair of shoes (which probably helped the run greatly - physiologically and psychologically). But that's a whole new topic - must remember to write on that someday. A.
