Make it a Magic Day!

Sunday I had a standard morning run. Noting spectacular stood out of the norm. I jogged in Kennesaw, GA, where I have had the opportunity to run previously. What took this run from good to great was, not so much the location as internal factors. Though I thoroughly enjoyed running on and round Kennesaw State University sporting facilities and a linking pathway. TI also enjoyed the weather. The morning was crisp and clear. All the sounds of nature rang out in melodic fashion. I didn't run too slow or too quickly. I kept a strong steady pace. During this outing I prayed, this too, is not an uncommon activity for me while running.
 
This particular morning I worked to be very intentional. I thought of all the things, great and small I appreciate in life. I thought of important people who made simple comments, which in turn had a profound impact on my life. This internal source of happiness coupled with the endorphins of the physical activity had me happy on the verge of mania by the fourth and final mile. 
 
I wrote writing this blog entry Sunday evening. As it turns out that great feeling worked its magic all day. Think positive thoughts and run. They combination makes for a marvelous day.
