Cliche?

Newly developed blisters on at least four toes; side stitches stretching about 3 inches on either side of the torso; hips in need of replacement; on-comings of a recurring injury. One run.

Kat Grillo pushed me to my limits tonight. Gotta love her for it. Or is it hate? Needless to say, I hurt. But what is exercise without pain? What is cardio without struggling lungs? What is a workout without sweat? 

Without a few up-hills, racing cars across the street, brick roads that make your feet scream, maybe a rabid dog or raccoon to keep you on your toes, running just isn't worth the time. Every step makes you a little bit stronger. And every road has a different story for you to pass on. So keep your eyes open, even if that drop of sweat threatens to obscure your vision. Who knows--maybe it will give you an interesting perspective. 

Happy struggles!
