January 30 change

I hit the strand and take off , first run in a fortnight . The last itch of of a cold still ruffles up the bottom of the lungs , but I’m good to go . Just take it easy . The heads in a scramble , firing off thoughts and arguments and then counter arguments in different tangents. Second day in a row the temperature is expected to reach the high 80s( 30 degrees) . It’s so still , busy . Runners , walkers , people are out exercising in their droves and we are reaching the mid point in winter . The surf has gone flat , the ocean has become a mirror , birds are swarming the close in waters . There must be bait fish ., The super moon must have its pull , sleeping has become fractured , the kids have been on edge , it might explain the energy . I get to the half way point of my run and I realise I’ve built up a bit of a clip , the current zinging into my hamstring and then circling and throbbing has subsided . I start to agree with myself , maybe this will be good for me , maybe it will take me on a new path . It will be day 2 today , all theory , a new guys voice , we’l see. Still I’m all go , have been for so long . I still run 4.2 ks in 20 minutes, I can’t slow myself down. Even not working , I can’t sit still . Hopefully this is the 2nd day in new direction . I don’t know if I’ve made the right choice but I know I won’t be house bound . Here we go ………….
