Its FUN again? well maybe just a little..

Just a quick note. Not sure mentioned it here before. But I used to always say running was not something I "loved" to do, but could do. You know the whole exercise thing. I did you to enjoy "getting away" during my runs. To alleviate stress and stuff like that. It dawned on me a few months back. I'm not having "fun" anymore. In fact, running became a chore. Perhaps I even resented trying to squeeze in time for it. I'm sure wicked working hours, and prolonged lack of sleep didn't help. But something unusual (at least for this year) happened on Saturday and today.

It sounds sadistic to say a 22 mile run was fun. But it I can say didn't suck either. And today I did 8x800's (pushing E2 around in the jogger) and I must say I actually enjoyed it.

It might be to late to salvage a good time at this years marathon, being only a couple weeks away and all, but I can be hopeful that maybe I'll enjoy it a bit more than I was anticipating.

Peace
