I may start doing this again...

Or maybe not.

I've had some frustration with my running recently, and I think one thing that helped me through this kind of thing was writing about it. No particular interest in anyone reading it, as before, but just talking about what's going on.

Actually, the main frustration has been how furnacey hot it's been, and how I don't seem to have the motivation to get up really early or stay up late to run. Before when I was doing all that, I was single, and didn't have to worry about anyone buy myself. Now that's changed. I'm not complaining about the change, but realizing how different it makes the circumstances with respect to scheduling my activities.

And on the last few runs I've started having aches and pains that I had thought were past history. Silly me. This new thing in my right hamstring, though, is a particular misery.

Blogging before was a way to blow off steam and think through things with my fingers. Maybe it will help me again. We'll see. For now, though, just a brief post to see how it feels. And to let you know how much I enjoy Sunday Street, by Dave van Ronk. Especially his version of the Maple Leaf Rag.

More later. Maybe.

Don't be frustrated, be positive in all things. Good luck to your run.
