The path to self-destruction.

I started to write this blog because I self-destruct.  I spend long months running and planning only to slack off and stop well before I can apply the word taper.  I do this out of fear.  Yesterday, I ran to crush some of that fear.  Here's a secret for you...if you run, fear will follow but can't keep up.
I ran a 13 mile long run...just to quiet the bad little voice.  It felt good!  Well it mostly felt long... but good.  So, I got up and ran again.  Today I did a 6 mile jaunt with Miss Kate out on North Lake Whatcom (Nope, not my photo.  It's ripped off the internet)




The best part?  Wading into the cool lake water....At the end.


Know what else?  The little voice is a mere whisper and getting quieter by the minute.
