Tonight was a great night for running. The weather was cool, the sky was clear, the stars were out, and the neighborhood was quiet. I found myself thanking God several times in my run. Thanking him for the weather, for being able to run, for living where I do. I saw this video on YouTube a couple of weeks ago when I heard Ryan Hall was going to be a Luke's Locker in Houston. I was looking for his finish from the Aramco Half-Marathon in 2007. I remember watching it on TV when he set the American record, and I see his autographed picture crossing the finish line every time I go in On The Run here in Pearland. Ever since I've seen this video, I've had a different attitude about running. I used to constantly be trying to figure out how much farther I had to go. Now, I just enjoy it. My training has taken another step, and I'm beginning to think I might need to set a new goal for the marathon. Watch the video. Who knows, it might inspire you to start running. Even if it is just for some time alone.
