Sweet Surprises

Yesterday, was a sweet surprise...

Where my legs were light...

Feet barely touching the ground...

 A smile on my face...

A new route taken...

New hills to conquer...

Effortless miles...

Not watching the clock...

No thoughts of, "I quit" or "I don't want to"...

My last long run before Eugene...

Not caring what the "plan" said...

Just wanting to have fun...

Smiling...

Breathing...

A new friend to run with...

A friend that said as we parted ways, "I would love to run with you again!  You have a great pace!  Your legs are strong!!"  This, from a girl that averages 7:45-8:30 miles.  This, from a girl that doesn't even know the story of my legs...

8 miles at an 8:32 average...

1 mile at 8:10...

1 at 8:12...

Where did that come from?

Peace...

Thankful...

Fun...

Refreshing...

Blessing from God.
