My posts have been "few and far between!" And yes, some runners -- me included -- can become "determined" in an effort to keep complete lists of their running watch data. But this post will be different today!! Today is really all we have ... and I think today it would be better simply to skip all the listing of runs made since July 23. Instead, I feel like sharing my running has been going well -- and that various other parts of life seem to also be coming together as they say. Yesterday, following a farther than normal 6.47 mile run, I was tempted to stay home rather than go to an event my manager from work had said he and his wife and kids were going to go to. Not having had any lunch yet following my mid-afternoon run, it somehow seemed like a better idea to be a little more social than I usually am, and to "change the pace' of my otherwise not very eventful day!
So, at 4:00 pm I found myself at (the very large) Roger's Field in my next door town of Devens. It was "Devens Day" and the 3rd year of festivities -- which again included many vendors, GREAT music and food -- followed by what turned out to be one super impressive August 19th fireworks display. I found my work friends there. We all watched the fireworks in awe on many blankets up close to where the crew launched them.
