It took me a couple days but I think finally found my groove for January. I woke up ready to run today and early this afternoon, finally, I got 'er done.
Five since my last run and that, again, is way too long. I've got to pick up the pace, dang it! I've got pounds to shed and I've got a healthy heart to try to maintain (not necessarily in prioritized order.) Every four or five days ain't gonna make for the healthy life I want. Well... it's better than nothing.
Felt good today. Weather is nice, I actually dig overcast for running 'cause I don't need my sunglasses. Temperature is cool but not warm and not so utterly freezing that it's uncomfortable to run. I ran when it was that cold in Alaska and it's not a joy. 50 to 55 Fahrenheit is about ideal and 59's not too bad. This temperature doesn't suck the energy out of me and I can finish strong without having that seemingly never-ending feeling of wanting to quit, quit, quit. None of that today. No strains, chest feels good, breathing good, all's A-okay.
Now if I can just get out there in two or three days and not wait five again.

Saturday's Running Playlist included most of this album... | |
Neil Young with Crazy Horse Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere 1969 | |
Cinnamon Girl Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere Round & Round (It Won't Be Long) Down By The River The Losing End (When You're On) Running Dry (Requiem for the Rockets) Cowgirl In The Sand |
Need more Neil Young in this life! This is such a great album and more consistent than his debut released just six months before. Versus the debut where there are none, there are three pure classics here -- Cinnamon Girl, Down By The River, and Cowgirl In The Sand. The second two of those clock in at over 9 minutes and 10 minutes respectively. Cowgirl In The Sand I can get lost in over and over. One of the coolest things I dig here is the fiddle on Running Dry -- like kinda eerily somber, almost dirge-like and almost psychedelic in a way.
Such a sweet collection of tunes, from first note to last.
I really need to listen to this more!
