Good One

Got out late this afternoon, but at least I got out.

I've had a headache today, but nobody knew it. It's Valentine's Day. How can I complain?

I rested, made ecards for my loved ones and rested some more.

I ran Otter Trail.
I ran it fast.
There is a separation that I recognize. It splits me at the waist. My top half is sitting in the car while my legs spin round and round like wheels.
No, I'm not in a car. I'm not on a bike. I'm running. They're not wheels, they're legs. My legs.

I keep my head up now. I don't see my feet. I feel them. They touch the ground with clear intention. I tell myself....foot down straight, heel then toe, reach out, control your breathing and pick up the pace. Come on Kathy--Go!!

Maybe that's why I feel this separation. I glance over the landscape the way you would while sitting as a passenger in a car, lost in another world.
