8r4d I walked out of my class tonight and the #northernlights were dancing in the #sky … but they only lasted a few minutes and then vanished again.

8r4d Our gradually increasing distances took us into the creek for a chilly #autumn #running adventure on a Sunday morning, the last long run of September. Fifteen klicks was one more than we planned but one less than our race distance just a month away. Still lots of time to build but only a few long run opportunities left as the days get chilly and short again.

8r4d Our Sunday morning #running for the last day of #summer felt very much like an #autumn run through the orange hued trails. We’ve been ramping up our distances as we’ve been training for fall races, so this morning was 12k of rolling creek and suburban paths in the chilly morning air.

8r4d It really is all about expression, isn’t it? I mean, that’s the reason I post all this stuff. Online blogs. On apps. Anywhere.

8r4d #running everyday for exactly two weeks is exhausting. It’s not so much the distance, but the lack of proper rest and recovery between runs means that some days it feels like you haven’t stopped for much more than a nap, and to your body not leaving enough time between runs is as good as not resting at all. So it kinda starts to be like running one really long run broken into segments, rather than multiple runs.

Good news tho, my new #headphones arrived in the mail yesterday and I got to try them out on run number fourteen of my streak. They are bone conduction headphones so they don’t block the ole ear holes and are supposed to be safer for situational awareness like traffic and heavy machinery.

Friday the 12th of September, 2025, around lunch-ish.
