Deep Thoughts


As I sit on my patio with the warm sun shining down on me and sip my chilled glass of Vivác Chardonnay, my mind turns to running. I think how this is a perfect, beautiful day to go for a run. I think how great I would feel after getting back on track. I wonder if I should look up races coming up and start training. My chardonnay tastes incredible.

I gaze at my bare feet resting on the chair opposite me. They look different. No bruised toenails, no blisters or strange bumps. Wow, it has been a long time since I ran. I wonder if I want to hurt the way it hurts when you push your body during training. I wonder if I should pour more wine.

As the soft ripple of wine pours into my glass a sudden thought occurs to me! I have only been running as a form of training, but never allowed myself to simply run for pleasure! Of course prior to this whole running thing, I thought you only ran if something was chasing you so I guess I have no point of reference when it comes to "running for pleasure".

That's it, I will run for fun! Except now I have had 2 glasses of wine so it will have to wait till tomorrow.
