Strong like bull in the park

I had a phenomenal run today at mine falls park. The same 6 mile loop I did two days ago, accept today i did it 4 minutes faster. I just felt really strong and also needed a challenge. I never run for time, I could care less usually. But ive been running so many miles that all the runs seem to be the same so i decided to see what I could do today! i havent been this excited about a run in a long time. This was a max effort, bring the pain run!!




Like I mentioned I dont ever get worried about my time, its just about finishing events. It’s sort of like the old story about two bulls who came over the hill and saw a bunch of cows in the pasture. The young bull says ” hey lets run down there and screw one of those cows” and the older bull says “Let’s walk down and screw ‘em all”!! Thats me with running!



I really had no issue keeping up with the pace I set. Though I have a hard time setting a faster pace by myself. Wish I had someone quick to run with once in a while.



I only had two issues to deal with today. #1 Ignorant dog owners. The sign says no unleashed dogs! Feel free to follow the rules. If I wanted a dog sniffing my crotch as I run I’d go buy one!



#2 Stay at home mom’s-shouldn’t you be at home? ok seriously, you want to take your kids for a walk, thats fine. But do you have to walk with 4 strollers next to each other on a 12 foot wide trail??? WTF move over people, you dont own the park!



Well thats about all i have time for! hope you had a great day too!
