Sappy Running Ramblings

5 mi - South to TP

Really was not feeling the whole getting up thing this morning. Usually I wake up a bit before my alarm due to that internal clock I've got going but this morning my running watch totally tore me out of a dream (Apparently I was horse-sitting the winner of the Triple Crown. Weird.). But once I hit the road things felt great. It's starting to warm up a bit in the mornings which is nice. Knee felt a little sore later today at work, but I think its cause I kept sitting funny as I was typing. When my knee starts to feel better I tend to forget about posture and stuff while at work, thus aggravating it again. Bad Julie.

Today I was in a pretty awesome mood though. Good run to start things off, a good day at work, and overall just reflecting on a fun weekend has put me in a positive mood. Which is nice considering I feel like last month I was up and down dealing with work, my knee, moving, and general spaziness. I feel very settled and happy right now. Things are good :) Sometimes my mood can totally hinge on one or two things, but being able to run consistently again has really kept me even in my temperament. It's this aspect of my life that steadies me. There are so many things in life that can get out of control: Work, family, relationships, etc, that just to know I can go out and hammer some miles makes the rest easier to deal with when things get chaotic. 

Ok, that's all for now. Eventually I gotta discuss my racing plans for this spring...but that'll be another day.
