Almost exactly 6 years ago. When running stops being a sport, a way to see the world, take a break, get away, and becomes something so much MORE:
Suddenly it's a tangible manifestation of the Earth's love for you through your contact with the dirt.
And I loved you every mile you drove away.
Your sneakers are actually hugging you through your feet.
But this time around there is nothing painful, no bruised knees, no sacrifices, no give-and-take that I have to endure when negotiating my daily run.

Thank you feet, thank you songs coming on the iPod at just the right time, thank you two extra miles that flew by. Maybe I will run a marathon this week (just not all in one day!)
