Got My Run On

WELL. I finally made it to the gym. I ran a little over 4 miles while jammin' to Kanye the whole dang time. Let me tell you Buddha + endorphins= high on life. I was having a freakin' blast. Of course, I pretty much always enjoy the gym because I'm weird like that, but I really did have some extra fun tonight. I also got extremely lucky because I didn't turn my phone back on after getting off the train, so I missed about 8 million calls from work and by the time I was out of the gym the crisis had been managed. I felt bad that someone else had to put out the fire before me, but not THAT bad if you know what I mean.

Today was also the first day of a marathon schedule that I am trying to decide if I want to seriously follow. It's to help raise money for a really good cause and I have always wanted to run a marathon...No time like the present right? I'm just really concerned about the whole work taking over my life thing. I need to think about it some more. If I decide to do it, I would run sometime in May or June. I am leaning more towards a half for now though.

Waited till too late to meditate tonight. Was falling asleep most of the time. Strange thoughts about the movie The Village and olden days were entering my mind. Also, Veronica Mars. She pops up in my subconscious more than I'd like to admit. Not sure why either. I confess I quit with one minute to go, but it was a lost cause.

Highs:
- drama free day for me personally while many other's had their own dramas
- made it to the gym
- had some nice train reading
- have to be a work a half hour than originally planned

Laters!

  1. I managed to get in a 30 minute meditation last night, which was surprisingly good!

    Although, as I mentioned in my e-mail, my mind was bouncing all over the place.

    Glad you managed to get in a workout yesterday.

  2. So I did really great with the whole compassion thing today until I left the apartment. Sigh.
