There is nothing like it

All I could think about today was running. I could not wait to step on the trails. I planned on an easy run since I have just started getting back into my training, but as soon as I put my shoes on I knew I was was gonna fly. I felt heavy from weights yesterday. It wasn't one of those runs where your body just feels amazing, I felt very sluggish and heavy, but for some reason I could not get myself to slow down. I caught myself flying down the trail and had to force myself to slow up so I could last the distance I was aiming for. Wasn't even wearing my music today (so I can't even blame it on T.I. :)

The leaves had fallen and the sky was grey threatening to rain again. All I could hear were the leaves crunching beneath me and my breath. It was beautiful today. My feet barely touching the ground. There is absolutely nothing like it. This feeling of running. My heart had wings today.
