Wherever does the time go? I sit here, on a Monday, thinking about many things… Most of them not related to the vocation in which I currently reside. But I digress.
Things are, surprisingly, good right now. Last week, I ran a bit over 18 miles, which is the highest I have run in quite some time without grimacing in pain at the mere thought of it. The custom orthotics with these particular shoes appears to be the winning formula right now. That, and the fact that I am really minding my pace on most runs and not trying to “race.” For me, that is a straight shot to injury and that I cannot have. Not now. Training for the Marine Corps Marathon starts in earnest in May.
So, five (5) weeks until the Reedy River Run. I am proud of all of the runners in both my 5K and 10K groups right now. They are pushing forward in a very strong and determined way. I too am looking forward to running Reedy, specifically the 10K. I would be lying though if I said my mind and heart were not already starting to pack my bags for Germany. I need it, in so many ways.
Be well.
