Enjoy your time away. When you get back, you’ll hear about the 3rd of 3 5Ks that are part of a summer Disney “Frozen” challenge and the Jack &Jill

Oh, Terrell, another break?????! Sigh! I, for one, will definitely miss the newsletter, though I understand your longing for some real life beyond the digital age. Read all that you can and get out in the sunshine!!

Tuesdays with Morrie is coming eventually from Amazon.($1.39). I've discovered that the used books that are sold there are cheap and in better condition than I could ever hope. The Inner Runner I got last time was brand new, never opened. . . I only paid $1.00 for it!

Beautiful, beautiful summer here. Should get to 82 this week. Then the heat begins to taper for August. Can you believe it. . . the year just flew by! Looking forward to another training plan. I have to rebuild my body so that it can take on so many miles. I've been slacking!

PS. I do wish that walking did not take such a bad rap. Even the ulta-runners (especially the Ultrarunners!) walk and still call themselves runners! I totally admire them and wish that I could do it myself. A brief YouTube that I think you may enjoy from my Coach Lisa Ponzoni https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_04gsIfncQ

Oh, and Mina Guli has opened her next Challenge for The Zero Waste Run, August 3-7. It is free! An opportunity to clean up the planet. I'll be there. . . did it last time, too!

Enjoy the rest of Summer! :)

Love the story about Dawn. At any speed, the "runner's high" is real and to be treasured! Go, Dawn, go! Enjoy your time off, Terrell!

Enjoy your time........I am just getting back into a routine that includes walking and biking with the ultimate goal of getting back to running. I had rehabbed earlier this year from a torn meniscus repair, only to have an emergency major surgery 5 weeks ago.......so back to ground zero......but as I rebuild, I love the encouragement that I gather here from you and everyone!!! I am so glad that you pace yourself....it is the one thing we all need to do........learn to listen to your body........seems mine was screaming at me and I refused to listen...........I appreciate a second chance at this. I pray that all my running friends are taking the time to recharge and be kind to your body. Blessings all!!!

This whole thing is starting to get a little weird. A little while back I made the comment about no more water sprinklers on the course and behold yesterday at the Crazy 8 in Kingsport I got to run through three, one on a dark part of a street I didn't see coming. So is it writing or wizardry you are taking a break from? Next race is not for two weeks so I think I will join you. See you then!

Enjoy the time off! I’m writing this from Mallorca, where we’ve just woken up from a siesta, I’m reading a book while the kids swim in the pool, and we’re picking a beachside restaurant to get some seafood paella this evening. Hope you get some decent rest and recharge Terrell!
