Running is freedom

Every Sunday I do my long run.

Two and a half hours of running

In my case this means about 2,5 hours of running, interspersed with a nice cup of coffee in a restaurant. Because I plan my long runs around nice restaurants. A restaurant as my destination is a good reason to keep on running. And what can I say: I just love to have my coffee, and drink it too!

I'm in a hurry to get things done

Sometimes when I start out on my Sunday long run, I feel antsy and hasty. I've got this hurried feeling. But then I remind myself:

'It doesn't matter how long it takes me, as long as I get there! Even if it takes me all day, who cares? I'll still have gone the distance.'

That realization, knowing I've got all the time in the world, offers me a wonderful sense of freedom.

Freedom

My long runs on Sunday are pure freedom!
