running

Since January, I've been running again. I run almost every day. I ran today. I feel salty and a little dehydrated, but dehydrated in a good way - like I've purged the excess. I don't really get sore. Although I could use a good massage. I've lost a few pounds too. The run today was really good. I did my medium distance route. My form is getting better. I didn't stretch today, but normally I do. Actually, I usually spend a good 20 minutes stretching. There 's something hypnotic about it, something calming. Running is really the thing I look most forward to doing. Last week after a good hour and half run, I still felt up to it, so I ran another half hour.

Added to this is that is that I've been trying to eat better. Trying to cut meat out of my diet. I've noticed that my body doesn't like bad things. I had pizza last week and my body wasn't happy with me. It's starting to become easier to not need soda. I have sort of a moral dilemma. A couple of days ago a steak - a little fillet mignon wrapped in bacon - from the freezer and put it into the refrigerator to let it thaw. I feel bad though. I don't want to eat it. But I don't want to let it go to waste either.
