WTF...Already?

While out on the run this morning, I looked up to see a figure of Santa Claus in Christmas lights, it caught me by surprise, as I jogged on by. I thought WTF, Already? I guess we are 6 days from Thanksgiving, so it's close enough. Should I be wishing everyone a Happy New Year? Or just a Merry Christmas? Well, not yet I think. I am not quite feeling it yet. Soon enough. It's Friday and for now thats good enough, have a great one!

Trails and Trials

Today's Workout:

X77

RUN: 67/6 miles, trail run.

BIKE: 60/19+ miles, stationary spin.

SWIM: 10/400 yards, pool.

A little extra time this morning, up later, more coffee and the urge to run the trail. Smooth and easy run out there. Quiet with the sun just coming up over the hills, giving that pale reddish orange glow. Brisk outside with that feeling of the holiday season coming right up. Calm in the mind and so a nice run, the trail being a pleasant change from the road and treadmill runs that make up the bulk of my training. That's the Trail.

The Trial; Here we reside on this earthly plane of life. We go about our business of life as we are taught or as we so desire or as we think we must. Living however we are and for however long. If we occasionally think about living rightly, that is; in a peaceful way, harming no one, loving people, accepting differences, doing the best we can towards good works, these are worthy endeavors. If we were to consider ourselves living as though we were on trial, we just might make the effort to live in a more more rightful way. No, I am no prophet, and I surely am no saint. I am imperfect and have plenty of faults, now and then I have these thoughts and this is one of them. Now you can think about it.
