The first week.

Fall Bliss Out.

This week I ran three times.  All three times were really physically hard, so the wonderful weather made it easier to not grumble my way through the streets and paths of our beautiful city.  I am finding that my joints are suffering a bit from the impact.  Perhaps I need new runners.  Oh no wait, perhaps its because I am running at 198 lbs. 

Riiiiight...

But honestly each run was great.  I'm loving the mental space it gives me.  Being alone with my thoughts is something I need more of.  I am definitely a slow processor.  I don't mean I'm dumb... I just mean it takes me a while to navigate through my thoughts on certain issues or problems because my mind can race a mile a minute most days.  Running slows my brain down a bit and clears the noise. 

And speaking of noise... I also quit Facebook this week.  I have to say, I missed it for about 6 hours, and since then it has been total bliss.  I have no idea what anyone is up to that isn't in my immediate circle... but that's okay!  I get to focus inward more.

Happy trails.
