I had high hopes. I was going to run 8kms in record time this morning. But no, my hopes were dashed as I started out. My eyes were burning, I couldn't take a deep breath to fill my lungs, bricks were tied to my ankles, or so it felt, my hamstrings were tight and my head was pounding. Ughh, what's wrong with my I thought. Was it because I couldn't fall asleep until after midnight last night, or that I kept waking up every hour? Was I dehydrated (quite possibly, as water is not my beverage of choice) or am I getting sick? I did a great 10km run on Saturday in the cold rain, so today I thought this 8 km was going to be a piece of cake. Well 8 k didn't happen. 5 did, but it was sad and pathetic.

Okay, I'll put away my disappointment from this morning and chalk it up to everyone has bad running days. Now onto designing more layouts for a new flush mount album, editing images from this weekend's session, and putting together an information book for clients.

I will leave you with a quote I stumbled across this morning.

Accept each day, each moment as it comes-the different seasons-and soon it will be spring.

-Jean Vanier, Philosopher/Humanitarian

Enjoy the sun today :-)
