Happy Monday Runners!

Today's quote is from Peggy Fleming:

The first thing is to love your sport. Never do it to please someone else. It has to be yours.

It's been so hot here on the US East Coast that it's hard to remember that we do love running as we get up earlier and earlier in order to get our long runs in before the heat and humidity become not only unbearable, but also somewhat unsafe to exercise in.

How was your week? What is one thing you love about running?

I ran about fifteen miles this week, same as the week before, but in three runs instead of four. I was really happy about the long run I did on Saturday, especially because I was taking time out from a sort of stressful rl thing to be by myself doing something I enjoy. Another thing I like about running outside is seeing places I know (or, recently, places I'm visiting) from a different perspective.

Oh, I totally agree about seeing places differently! I did some running at a conference I went to in another city in June, and that was just wonderful. I'm glad you've been able to run during your trip.
