Dear Running.

Running,

I'm sorry I said I was beginning to dread you. I don't mean any disrespect. It's just . . . well, it's just that you've been a little tough to take and I needed to vent. Please don't take it personally. Even the best relationships experience some rough times along with the smooth.

Now that we've had two days apart, I'm ready to get things going again. So, what do say we meet at the treadmill, 5:30-ish, and work on building up some speed. I'll bring fresh legs, you bring the fun. Sound good?

Thanks. See you then.

xoxo

    I've been feeling a little like that, too. Even during the half on Sunday, I just felt like I couldn't get into it. I've been off for a few days now and hope to feel up for a run tomorrow.

    Treadmill to Felice: "So, what's your sign, Toots?"

    "Can I see you again soon?"

    Yep, no real relationship is always perfect. But sometimes I find when I'm the most guilty about the way I've treated running, that's when he gets the best backrubs. I think your date will be great.
