Hey, wasn't it light just a minute ago?

Today was the first day I really realized that the light is rapidly disappearing. I got ready and locked the door behind me, having picked a 10km route I haven't done in a month or so. I started off easy, no rushing today, just enjoying the distance. I ran along the Goose Trail which is the old rail line that was converted to trails about 13 years ago. It parallels major arteries in town and is very popular with runners and cyclists alike. On my way back home I noticed that it was alot darker than I remember it being at this time. I suppose that is normal considering the time of year but it came as a bit of a surprize. I felt very fluid today, nice and easy stride, although I do feel some tightness in my left leg, I think it is just distance and stretching, good thing I have tomorrow off. 49:34 ~ 10km, 4:57 km pace. This week I will have covered over 400km since mid August, not bad for an out of shape slob with no motivation and no passion to do much of anything. At 502km, that will cover the distance of Vancouver Island from Victoria to Port Hardy. That day should come somewhere around the 19th of November. See you then. Peace.
