Stretchy Stretchy

As per Dagan's request, here's an image of an inspiring runner.

The gentleman above is Steve Prefontaine. Arguably the best distance runner in American history.


I like him, because his body was a little bulky and muscular for a long distance runner, and he had kind of a gamey-legged stride.

And he beat everybody and had a giant ego.

Time: 5:30pm
Temp: an even 32 degrees
Distance: 4 miles or so
Duration: 40 minutes
Wore: Sugoi, tank top, sports bra, thigh socks, fleece pants, tiny little foot socks and patience

Felt good. Felt amazing to think that this distance is my low key easy distance now. Had a stitch for a little bit. Made a new friend of a middle-aged man who runs at just about my pace. Looked like he could have been one of my uncles. Left leg a little tired at the end without the chance for a second wind that comes with longer runs.

Came home, quick carb replacement w/juice, and then stretching and sourced abdominal training. Important to stay connected as a whole body human being. Agile and integrated and whatnot. Wouldn't want to lose track of myself from the waist up. ;)
