Tarmac Meditations #62: Cold Workout

Early morning workouts are tough enough, but when it’s cold, it’s a greater exercise in will power.

Cold today. For Eugene, Oregon. Going out running/walking. Gonna use a ski mask. Not stopping at no 7-11. No man, not me. Them days are gone. Solid gone. I’ll let you know how it goes.

Been listening to the Butterfield band…got my blues on. Apparently it effect my spellin’ and grammars. On the other hand, it be my native language, other than Yiddish and New York.

Icy on the high-school track. Walked/ran the bike path instead for 40 minutes. Damned cold. Not a workout with purpose, more like a mileage deposit in the fitness bank with the accrued interest of bright-night stars, clear cold air, good friends, and a moment or two to be aware of the holy inhale/exhale of being alive.
