Evening Run

5k’s the point but lightheaded / heartache to heartache, we stand

in loops / yes i'm changing, yes i'm gone; yes i'm older, yes i'm moving on

easy 10k (+7k but Garmin died) / I can change, from my mould; I’m a million different people from one day to the next

revived 7k / you know it, you owe it to yourself; here is where we start, and where we end

my body feels like its in two time zones, all at once: 3 hours ahead where it's already late (and tired); but also very much here, moving, still chasing time, clip-clop to the tick-tock. could i keep this up to become a morning person? who knows (...no LOL). ran this in 1k loops (500m back and forth) until i got to 5k, as prescribed. this is the most nothing 5k ever, but that's the point. it's still so strange: under ordinary circumstance/regular programming, this would've been a write-off of some kind. tapering really feels like skiving off. still, i had to remind myself to slow down. admittedly somewhere around 3k i felt kinda tired, but picked up again around 4, 5k. we’re really down to the wire now. i can’t believe the marathon’s this sunday. after this we’d essentially be done with the year. and i’d be gone from here. all my local legends laid to rest, everyone else running over them. but i guess it just means there are other roads for me to be on.
