I really enjoyed reading about your experience; it's helpful to get a glimpse into what people are thinking while it's happening.
Although I don't run (I just can't breathe correctly or something...), I am this way also. Exercise time = me time. Everything turns inward; it's a wonderful feeling to be in the zone. |
Thank you, Jen. My legs were pretty sore yesterday, especially my quads, I think the uphill in mile 10 followed by the steep downhill in mile 11 really gave my quads a workout. I was able to walk around a fair bit though yesterday and today there's some stiffness but nothing sore. So I'm hoping to go out and run a few easy miles after work here today.
The introspection really focuses me. There were a bunch of people from a running message board at Philadelphia over the weekend and they were cheering as I came in. I didn't even hear them. But the guy taking photos got a decent shot of me --
