Man it was cold this morning.
Being December 1st and all you'd think I would know that. But hey give me some slack here, I live in Texas. Wednesday it was dang near 85 degrees, yesterday it froze and snowed. Ah Texas (pretty sure this is what Catholics call purgatory!)
I got up this morning around 5:40 in the am and went running. I was colder than h-e- double hockey sticks. It was a little under 29degrees and a little over 28degrees Farenheit. It was just me out there. I usually don't run mornings, but I am going to start. Not only because that is the most convenient time for me, but also because of the feelings I got today.
I felt unique. There I was while everyone else was asleep; I was up running. I was chugging through bricks of cold weather. I felt a little more alive out there. I ran with Orion and the Big Dipper. I ran with the Dawn when it began its ascent. I breathed in cold and breathed out discipline.
I recently printed off some motivational quotes and I said almost everyone of them this morning. But mainly, I just chanted over and over " I AM A RUNNER". And after today, I know think I am, I know I am.
