"We should all do what,
in the long run,
gives us joy,
even if it is only picking grapes
or sorting the laundry."

- E. B. White
People ask me a lot how the running has changed my body, or affected my dancing. Do my legs look different? Does it cut into my energy? I think about it myself too.
At this point, I would say that the change that I see is primarily internal. Something I used to think of a purely a chore has begun to feel like a joy at times - more and more often as I train. And the sheer act of running for an hour or two straight - no ipod, no distractions - well, that's creating a change I feel too. I hesitate to name it now, but it's there.
Resting up the shin. Back to running tomorrow.
Enjoy the springtime.
