sunshine

We escaped all of the wrath of the storms that swirled around the Middle Tennessee area on Friday. Took this picture before heading home on Friday night. Worst we got was the nickel size hail, that sounded like it was going to punch holes through the roof at the office. Though the drive home wasn't completely smooth sailing. Torrential rain, hail, wind.

Random thoughts bubbling through my head, as I ran in the sunshine and cold Saturday morning.

  • Polar opposites attract, why?
  • There's always a calm after the storm, but it isn't always rainbows.
  • The early morning sun is like a day glow strobe lite when it filters through the trees and brush.
  • Sunshine warms the body even when the temperatures are below freezing.
  • Solo runs with the mp3 player, rock sometimes. Grateful Dead, James Taylor.
  • Good to see groups out for a run and familiar faces.
  • Which has better odds, the craps table at the casino or decent weather in a marathon?
  • Early spring has got to be one of the best times to run, but isn't it really still winter?
  • If you're running in a group and its time for your walk break, don't clog the whole path.
  • April 2009 was when the tornado's touched down in our area, are the storms getting here earlier?
