Today's 20 mile run went smooth in hind site. While I was on it, it was a struggle to be sure. Aches were intense and the drive was low. Being tired and hungry definitely comes out when running that long. What I was thrilled about was that I headed out with a heavy head, all sorts of bothers and troubles that had been weighing me down for the last couple days. As the miles piled up, the worries diminished, as if the volume was getting turned down. They were still there, but the tooth was gone. I appreciate that more than anything else about running. No matter how far I go, when I am done I have run. That fact alone makes most days better. It's worth lacing up.
