pm--5 For a myriad of reasons I haven't run this week. It's really taken it's toll. I've been down and depressed and nearly gone off the deep end, but now I'm back. The run felt really good. A week like this makes me realize just how central running is to my well-being.

pm--5.75 I often default to the tready, but that might be over after tonight. I was about a mile into a run, and the darn machine went to full decline and the speed went crazy. There was an abnormal hum as well. Consequently, the old truncated morning route called my name. It was nice to get out side w/ a bit of beard folk on the earbuds.

pm--4.25 So today was the birthday run--37 minutes for 37 years. This is probably a birthday run that lacks ambition, but any run w/ a birthday in it is good, and any birthday w/ a run in it is good.

am--10.25 Really nice run on the Santa Clara Mt. trail--Suicidal Tendencies for the bikers. I keep the pace pretty honest when I go out on the trails by myself, so that was good. The views are always better than I remember when I get to the turnaround. One of my favorite trails around.

pm--7.25 The run tonight was perfect. Twas a moment to savour. The legs and lungs listened to the pitch of the pavement, and the ears, Local Natives. I'm thankful for where I live and where I run. At times, tonight I couldn't see where I was stepping. Every step was faithful forward motion. Runs like tonight don't happen nearly enough. How often can you run in short-sleeves on a late January evening?
