I re...Redlining. <br /><br />That's what keeps it exciting. <br /><br />I really enjoy the way you write about running. One nice thing about the sport is its inherent reward and punishment structure. I remember a experiencing a growing sense of self determination when I first started to train seriously. By self determination I mean that for the first time in my life I started to embrace a belief system which allowed for the possibility of a large degree of control over one's own performances and physical self, and by extension, one's own future in general.<br /><br />Despite the realities of individual physical limitations and the curse of fate (too much Indian Food the night before, a fallen tree branch, a bad pothole), the sport of running offers what seems to be a fair and fairly reliable reward and punishment system, something that's more nebulous in other parts of of life. You get back what you put in (usually). Sometimes that's measured in minutes or seconds, sometimes in battle scars.<br /><br /> I'll make a note to visit your blog more regularly.<br /><br />cheers,<br />~BethAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8039750859742917688.post-2619615684050793102009-05-11T11:57:00.000-04:002009-05-11T11:57:00.000-04:00Reminds me of one of my favorite quotes:

When love and hate are both absent everything becomes clear and undisguised. Make the smallest distinction, however, and heaven and earth are set infinitely apart. If you wish to see the truth then hold no opinion for or against. The struggle of what one likes and what one dislikes is the disease of the mind.
