Downhill the whole way.
Every once and awhile a run takes on a life of it's own. That's what happened today.
Today's workout was a really fun interval workout through the brisk, crunchy trails at French Park Reserve in Plymouth, MN. I've been wearing different shoes lately, one's I used to wear when I first got into trail running in 2009. That familiar gait on the trail having traveled thousands of miles in training and races feels good and provides me with opportunities to work on things I hadn't in awhile. Fall is a fun season to run. Temps have cooled and the bugs have all gone away. The forest sings songs of deer scurrying off and squirrels playing tag in nearby trees. I like running fast. Age catches up with us all and I've slowed down quite a bit in the last five or six years. In my younger years, especially my childhood, I was always running, and I loved it! My run this afternoon developed a theme. Downhill was my idea of the day and it was really fun to honor that throughout the workout. I like football. I played football in high school and college. The idea of running downhill even on flat ground makes sense to me. Today, I even ran downhill, uphill. The idea was that I would continue to put pressure on the moment and grow from it. This kind of pressure, when manifested by doing things that you enjoy can lead to clearer purpose and more disciplined execution.
