8 mile out-and-back on the WOD. A glorious morning for a run. I have been feeling closed in due to the 9-5 schedule, and it can really put me in a funk. This morning's run broke me free of these bonds and I felt very spiritual on the second half of the run. It's easy to lose sight of this when obsessively checking your pace at each mile marker and stressing about what lies ahead of you at work. Running is one of precious few opportunities we have throughout the day to let our souls catch up with our bodies, and wasting that is a bitter shame. |
