It's been awhile since I posted to this blog and although I have thought about it many times I just have not found the time or inspiration.
Today when I woke up it was 48 degrees in Florida at 9:00am I had to run and B.Emmett was ecstatic. He was happy and every muscle in his body seemed to quiver and say, "It's been awhile." Not that we don't run on a regular basis but today's run was different. It was almost magical.
It's been awhile since it was cool enough to go longer, to pick up the pace, to run later in the morning.
It's been awhile since we had the time to run together and really enjoy each other's company without feeling rushed to get the run over with and on to the next thing.
It's been awhile since we ran the route we took today. A beautifully shaded mostly downhill route past houses with big yards and rambunctiously joyful dogs barking encouragement to us as we pass by.
It's been awhile since I have had to wear a long sleeve shirt and peel it off halfway through the run once my body warmed up.
It's been awhile since we have felt the greeting of cold air filling our lungs with an almost uncomfortable yet somehow pleasant sensation.
It's been awhile since we enjoyed a run as much as today's run.
B.Emmett was a very happy dog this morning!
