Okay, I know every runner has them, and they're usually self-inflicted, but that doesn't mean I have to like it. Today wasn't a good run day. In fact, it pretty much sucked. Woke up to do some miles on the treadmill before work as I have a lunch appointment today... and couldn't do it. I mean, yeah, I did it. I got in 2.5 painful miles at a 10:30 pace. My shins hurt. My calves hurt. Pretty much everything below the knees hurt. I guess 2 speedwork sessions and a 20-mile long run in the space of 5 days probably isn't the best thing for the legs... especially when the speedwork sessions (and today's run) were done in shoes with 350+ miles on them. Who knew.
Oh yeah, I did. Duh.

The Meaning Of Life
Life is not to be spent in quiet, restful moments of relaxation. Life is meant to be pounding, screaming with sweat and power, explosive and breathtaking with all the energy you can bring to a boil. You are most alive as an athlete, living life to its fullest on the road -- as fast, and as far, as you possibly can.
