Went for a run this morning, more of a “went for an extended forward fall this morning” actually. I paused at one of the kilometre marks and was catching my breath and letting my heart rate drop a bit when I looked up at the sign…ironic placement/timing because yeah….I stopped….and I’m gonna keep standing here stopped while I think about the remaining 2km I have to run to finish up this little bit of self-inflicted torture that people call “healthy and good for you”, so suck on that city planners….HAH!
It was clearly an irrational thought pattern brought on by this masochism I was engaging in…..obviously.
A little later in the afternoon I received a notification that something I’d ordered was now in down at the mall. A logical person, after running in the morning, would have suggested getting in the truck to go pick it up…. I suggested a close to 8km walk to go get it.
On the way back we looked down into the Capilano River and saw a savvy group of people settling in to beat the afternoon heat.
