Ran my longest work out to date in 2010 last night, finished 10 miles in 1:34. Not the fastest run of my life (9:28 pace) but still an accomplishment to mark in my book.
At mile 5.25, "My Girl" by the Temptations played. As always, I thought of my Dad and ran harder. Mile 5 was the fastest mile over the 10.
I run for myself and I run for him. I love you, Dad. Thank you for being my inspiration and my motivation to keep that expectation of ascension alive.
Time for a little yoga, maybe a massage, and some new running shoes!
