Achilles Run, "Stay thirsty my friend."

if it's tuesday, this must be...

GREAT day off! Morning started off raining, REEEEally raining, then-as if on cue, the skies smiled on the intrepid runners. By 9, no more rain! Outstanding. Did the St.Francis run, then back to the job (drama on the unit). Address the troops, set things right, then go for a swim, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Chill, shower, then a flick (Step Up 2, The Streets). Nothing Oscar worthy, but a good way to fill the void before pm spinning. Lil' ellipin' to loosen up, then spin class. And, lo and behold, who's there? Debbie! Why is that name so popular? We have Debbie P-former Uber Strider; Debbie P-running peep and WebMaster (she uses her powers for good); and the Debbie I've known for 24 years. Funny how we drift in and out of each other's lives.

I'll never understand how people who don't have a goal, whether running or whatever, live their lives. Toxichouse is indescribable (do YOU still have your Christmas tree up???-not for sentimentality either, just neglect). Work is work, but running is joy/challenge/nourishment for the soul. After a run you're never satisfied with the result, but you KNOW you did one good thing for yourself (and thus for others). And the only thing a peep wants is to share the experience and help you be your best. Gotta tune the machine.
