On days like today when the snow left from plows form moguls in the roads and the wind is blowing me backwards, when every step forward feels like tremendous effort, I wonder why I’m still running.  I’m no elite athlete.  This isn’t my job.  Is this REALLY what I have to do to stay in shape?! 

When the effort is extreme, I do wonder why I continue to make myself suffer.  The only answer I can come up with is the challenge to be better. Better than I was last year or the year before. Not allowing age to get the better of me.  I keep running, fighting off cold, fighting off fatigue and giving up some little things that, although might be enjoyable and satisfying, might also hinder what I work so hard to achieve.
