It was one of those days that marked the beginning of a new chapter. A new season. Started off a little slow, with a mix of new runners & the staple of a few regulars. We looped around Battery Park, with thousands of people out enjoying the recent spring air. I pushed it hard on the east side, stretching my legs & testing my form. And again on Union Hill, where I went for blood. My own, but still the same.

Last night, as I was leaving work, I realized how small my world had become as I watched people dancing for money in front of a crowd invoking laughter I hadn't felt in ages. All I kept thinking was if I really wanted more, what was I waiting for.

Distance: 13.4 miles
State of Mind: The sun feels beautiful on my skin
