The weather outside is so nice ...

... I have to run twice

Did an afternoon run in the sun (1hr) and then ran my last VanRun Wed night run of the year.
I enjoyed both runs, ... one for the sun and the 2nd for the company.
Squeezed in an upper body workout in between the runs.  Triple workout.
Tried to get some comradery as a team (seeing how this is the last time
I'll be running with them for a long time) on some of the intervals tonight,
but it didn't work out very well.

Anyways, for some reason I thought about my friend Brian (a 2:49 marathon runner)
and a 10km race (or was it a half marathon?) we did a few years back.
In that race my shoelace came untied ...
he stopped for me in the race so I can tie it up.  Yeah I was a bit mad about the way
we worked as team in practice today ... but I'm not mad anymore.
No grudges.
In fact, if anything I thought about my teammate Brian.  A happy thought.
Happy thoughts are good ;)
Its average and maybe the norm for everyone to look out for him/herself in practice these days ...
Different world, but I continue to appreciate the sport regardless.
Again no grudges, but just reminiscing great running partners and friends I used
to train/race with.
