"…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."

snow, sleet and wind

The plan to go to Sedona was cancelled and postponed to next week.
So instead I went for a run along Lake Mary Road towards Upper Lake Mary. Jogging weather conditions where not the best however I saw one cyclist and a few joggers.



I ran 13.7miles in 2 hours. Nice and easy pace, but after an hour I felt weaker and weaker. I had stomach cramps and my calves hurt. Stomach problems where probably caused by a powerbar I ate and my calves were weakened by a midweek work out (6miles) in my vibrams.

This is the map of my today's workout. A simple but satisfying route.


Tomorrow is Monday, - recovery day.
