I like beginnings and starts, cleaning the slate. In some ways, I feel like I am doing that as the new year starts and in some ways, I feel like I am continuing some great things. I am building my faith, for example. I feel like it has a stronger foundation than it ever has.
My running also is just a continuation of a strong end of the year. I feel like my running is for my own joy but it also will do good for other people. If I am healthy and running strong, I feel more well-rounded and a better father and husband and teacher.
I ran 34 minutes on the treadmill yesterday and it was a good run. I need to get over this little soreness I am having in my right achilles near the heal. Probably just 20 minutes tomorrow morning before I resume school.
