And the water shone like diamonds in the dew.
-- Neil Young, "Thrasher"
I was not feeling it this morning when I headed out -- congested, hacking and suffering a little headache . . . I then went out and ran my fastest time yet on my 3.3 mile course. Running is like that -- sometimes you eat the miles, sometimes they eat you.
Everything was dew covered this morning, and it was really lovely. Lots of lawns were silver-green and water droplets on branches blazed in the sun. The words I quoted above kept echoing in my brain as I ran. I spent a lot of time on the run trying to remember the words to "Thrasher" -- I did pretty good -- which is one of the finest tunes ever written, in my opinion. Good run.

Good for you for getting out in the mornings. My alarm went off at 6:30, and I couldn't get it together to get out for a morning run. And congrats for the PR on your 3.3 mile course.
