Last Week Toronto

last week i ran in toronto.
tomorrow i'll run in california.
16 states, 2 countries, 37 years. countless shoes (but always nike) and shorts. dry desert runs, and runs in ice and snow. runs at midday, and runs in the dark of the night. runs where i've laughed and runs where i've cried. runs that hurt me and runs that i wish never ended. runs right after my children were born, runs on the day my parents died. my honeymoon was a marathon and dying on a run wouldn't be a bad way to go.
i've run for so long now, i can't imagine life without this routine of putting one foot in front of the other in such a way that i glide along and the world just glows.
enough for now.
