Me and My Piper

Today it was Pipes and me.  We headed to Brad a little late just so it would be us.  I decided on a backwards Mindy's BD loop.  It was perfect.  Piper only tried to kill me two times trying to get to squirrels.  Other than that, what a good day to be out.

I met a woman in the parking lot before the run.  She sported a VT50 tee so I asked her if she was thinking Big Brad.  Well, they were just visiting and checking things out.  Later, about 1/2 through my run, I saw her again, working on the Bruiser course.  She was so happy and enthusiastic.  Brad's trails were "just awesome".  Yup, I knew I liked her :)

After the run, Pipes and I met Nathan and John, who'd just finished their BBU loop.  Nice to visit before heading home.  I love Brad.

A Love Story

Running, it heals.  Running friends, they heal.  Running makes me feel like me.  I had a work week that I don't want to repeat, but am probably going to for the foreseeable future.  But I run and know it will be there for me to return me to me. 

The knee I fell on a few times has been hurting, but felt better after our 20 today. 

I love running.

PS.  I forgot my hydration pack this morning.  Rick drove it to the park for me.  Less than three.
