I got a reprieve today, didn't do the mile test. I saw the weather last night and it was supposed to be blowing 18 to 20 mph at 6 am this morning. So along with my esteemed coach I made the decision to race on Saturday rather than just run. And today I did 800 repeats instead of the mile test.
Now I have not done a lot of 800 repeats since my injury. But to my amazement I ran them faster than I expected and I believe that is a good sign.
The wind? Well it was almost non existent this morning, an absolutely beautiful morning, an amazing sunrise...God is really good! I could have run my mile it would have been the perfect day.
When I got home I grabbed some coffee and sat outside enjoying the morning God provided. When a morning like this presents itself I refuse to be rushed. Work can wait, laundry can wait, life can wait. Sometimes it's worth it to just be still and watch and listen to the world going on around us.
And then...the wind came.

- This blog used to chronicle my running experiences, many of which are inspiring and uplifting. Some of which are frustrating. Now this blog will chronicle all of the activities I enjoy and the inspiration I find here in our Colorado home. Growing up in New Mexico the mountains have always called to me. But Texas is where we moved when we graduated college. We had, after all, to make some money! We stayed in Texas much longer than expected and it was good to us and to our children who were raised there. But the dream was always to get back to the land we love. And so in 2016 we moved from Texas to Colorado and life here has been beyond our expectations. I will try to keep up with writing, if for no other reason than to help me express my love for these mountains the activities they give us.
