Hey Guys,
I ran the Baltimore half-marathon this morning. You guys couldn’t be there like last time I ran because you each had birthday parties to go. I had a pretty smooth run. I really thought hard on two things.
One: Keep Going. Just keep going. I never stopped going (save about 30 seconds to stretch my cramped leg). Some moments were inspired and seemed to barely require any effort to run and run hard. A few moments were total drudgery. Some were boring, some were lost in thought. But I just kept fucking going. Don’t get too high, don’t get too low, just go.
Two: Community. Wow, community. It’s such an important component of life. Taking care of yourself, your family, your responsibilities, your work, are all super important, for sure. But being part of a community and taking care of that community is pretty awesome! I felt that today. I’d love for you guys to feel that also. Maybe next year if I don’t run we can go down and cheer people on.
Love you guys,
Dad
