Concrete

I was super crunched for time today. I only had about 45 minutes to run and it was between 5:15 and 6:00 this afternoon. I left from my house and went to 180th and F Street. Then I turned around and went home. I did another mile or so in my neighborhood. Every step was on concrete. Not the best surface to run on. There is no give. As I ran down 180th Street I longed for a soft dirt trail surrounded by trees and wild animals. But, I took what I had available.

Life is kind of like that. I heard somebody say recently that one of the keys of a good life is to enjoy what you have and not to long for what you don't have. So when God gives you concrete or something similar...just enjoy it!

6.5 miles pretty easy at 7:30 per mile.
