The other day I ran in a park where I have jogged for the
last 14 years. As you might imagine, much has happened over that time. Mostly
there have been many fantastic experiences for which I am extraordinarily
thankful. I went to that this particularly park quite purposefully, a major change
has happened in that community, which will limit my interest in returning to
the area. The park and its wooded 1.1 mile loop has a nice mix of hills and the
surroundings are gorgeous. I’ve referred to it in several previous posts as the
place holds many fond memories. I’ve walked there with Shannan, taught classes in
the outdoor classroom, and run laps with dozens of friends. Flashes of all
sorts of weather and life occasions zipped through my mind as I trotted around
the mostly dirt path. It's a good place,
one for me, that marks many good times.
Running is a real celebration of life.
