Another trip around Oquirrh Lake on the walking paths this evening.  I thought about detouring to finish off with a longer run along a route I often enjoyed last year.  Decided against ... would like to get a few more miles under my belt first, since I haven't run a lot this year.

Feels good to expand the lungs.

Got to find a poem about wild geese.  A string of them were alight on the lake, gently paddling single file to destination unknown.  Four in line were baby geese.

Hot, tired, sleepy, and just not feeling great.  Though I ran at such a hot part of the day, the cooler than usual summer weather has been nice. Loving the cool breezes blowing in ahead of the thunderstorms.  Haven't had much sleep lately due to obligations.  It has definitely affected my desire to run, let alone anything physical.

So, I think I'll just rest a little ...

What a cool summer breeze!
Here, I make myself at home,
Rest, and take my ease.
--excerpt from The Narrow Road to the Far Province by Matsuo Basho (Trans. Dorothy Britton)

 

Played tennis last Friday and everything was out of sorts.  Tennis tomorrow, I'll go to bed early and hopefully that'll help.  Beautiful weather though!

Cleared the lungs out over the first mile or so, then ... felt good!  Thinking about doing the SoJo half marathon in October.
