"…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."

Sat 10 - Sun 11

Sat 10
Did 7.5 miles in new pure connect brooks. they're smokin' hot :) and really fast. i enjoyed running up to lowell's observatory and down towards buffalo park. near flag medic center i got stomach cramps (from eating breakfast with normal instead of soya milk).
Later that day we (mom, chuck and i) wen't to sedona for a 10 mile trail bike ride. we took the boynton pass trail. it was nice and warm. pics below are from the trip.




Sun 11
Long run. 15 miles in 2h09min. Two cases: my ankle and new shoes. They were ok for the first 70 min. than trouble started to grow. i don't know what it is but it's not my interior ankle. my inside just stiffens and starts to ache when running. when i stop and start walking everything is fine, and when i start jogging again the pain return after a minute or so. weird. i opted not to ice it, and as of today (Mon. @ 9:25pm) it feels great. we will see what it will look like tomorrow.

That's for me. wish me good luck. interview in phx.
