Run Until

Another hot day. The birds weren't even out. Just the sun.

I turned the fans on and made sure they were pointed towards the front of the treadmill. I warmed up for five minutes. Turned off the machine to reset it, and then started it back up.

Close to 10 minutes in VO2

I ran with Amy Macdonald, singing "But I will run until my feet no longer run no more. And I will kiss until my lips no longer feel no more. And I will love until my heart it breaks. And I will love until my heart it aches. And I will run until there is nothing more to live for."

I pressed on with one of my favorite running songs -- I Touch Roses by Book of Love. It bounces back and forth from my left ear to my right.

I ran to Madonna (of course).

I ran to the Streets of Fire soundtrack.

I ran and ran and ran.

And then I stopped.
