Happy 4th. Let Freedom Ring.
The Peachtree RoadRace, the largest 10k around, was ran again this morning, here in Atlanta. It started in 1977. Never been, 'cause I don't like to be in crowds. But, I was reading in the paper that there were several other "P'tree road races" in Iraq and Kuwait to commemorate. As if they aren't sacrificing enough...
10k is a long way. If my shoulder was doing a little better, I would have run this morning too, around my neighborhood, and down the road. There is something about running that brings surrender, sacrifice, and letting go.
I hope to run my own race when I feel better, just me. To honor our vets.
Their sacrifices and ability to put up with discomfort makes me humble in comparison.
Happy 4th.
