"…each day I take to the roads as a beginner, a child, a poet. Seeking the innocence of the beginner, the wonder of the child and the vision of the poet. Hoping for new appreciation of the landscape, a new perspective of my inner world , some new insights on life, a new response to existence and myself.

There are times, more often than the good times, when I fail. I never do pierce the shield. I return with a shopping list of things to do tomorrow. The miraculous has gone unseen. The message has gone unheard. I have had one of those loveless days on a lovely day for love.

Still, there is always the chance I'll have beginner's luck. And this run, this hour, this day may begin in delight and end in wisdom."

February summary

today was a shorter run 6.9 miles, however on a more flat road. I found out that if you turn in the opposite direction to Lake Mary Upper or Lower there is a flat as a table piece of road. so I unleashed my legs an tried to run the fastest i could but still feeling comfortable. nothing above 152bpm.
my average pace was 8:12min/mile. thats including all the ascents before hitting the flatness of flagstaff ;)
here is the course i ran today. boring as hell, but fast.
today's run is sponsored by the Heart
one interesting thing. i looked at my running summary for Feb. it turned out that i ascended the height of mt everest plus some. i find that pretty amusing, since i am in the middle of J. Krakauer's Into thin Air. Amazing book by the way. It's about the infamous 1996 Mt. Everest ascent.
