Simple Truths

The last year (coincidentally nearly a year since I posted here) has been hell on my running.  There's been classes, and moves, and Firm business, and I will tell you plainly, the last couple months I have just had a hell of a time getting out of bed in the morning to get a run in before work.

This week, I have done it twice, even when it would make me late.  I just did it anyway.  That morning run really does make things better. Ironically, the fatigue and general malaise which lead to me not running are conquered by running...

This isn't news, this isn't a surprise.  Sometimes though, you have to get reminded of that which you know.  Get up, get out, even just 20 minutes.  Go for a run.

I have some Firm business coming up that's going to keep me from running for the next couple of weeks. (For a Company that prides itself on physical fitness, they sure do get in the way of mine quite a bit.)  I need you people, very simply, when I come back to just ask, "Dan, did you run today?"  Be my little Nike-clad Jiminy Crickets.

And while I'm gone, maybe think about it for yourself.

Let's get in a run.  Help me, and I will help you.

Nothing friendlier than a good run...
