"Good morning", a greeting so automatic, but somehow it always rings true, often coming from a passing stranger on the morning run. Every day we can get out is a gift and every day and every running route has something unique to offer. From the excitement, danger and challenge we get from extreme weather days to the rave run perfect run temp days that can only be appreciated by experiencing the wicked ones. The daily struggle to wake early and get out the door is always rewarded, seek and ye shall find. Without the run it is difficult to clear the morning haze, a blah that can leave us in a funk that can last all day and can blur one day into the next ... until we finally run out the door again. Yikes!

It is a good morning!
