Quiet Run

Today I just wanted a quiet run - no music, no traffic, just running. I headed to the cemetery and found most of that. Ironically there were quite a few visitors in visiting today. I'm sure they found it odd that a 40something guy was running by. I kind of smiled as I thought of it.

Still it was a quiet run. The weather was nice - 50 degrees and partly cloudy.

The goal of this run was to run and clear my head. When thoughts came in, I just pushed them out. I did not want to think about anything. I did 2.8 miles, and felt good. I did an easy pace, and was pleased with how I felt.

I think there are days we need quiet runs. Eventually I am going to find a place which really takes me away from it all, so I can be totally at peace during the run. The peacefulness is healing if you are going through stress at home or work. It also gives you time for reflection if that is what you want. I suggest a run where you clear your mind. I think it can do some good.
