I went down to the alley and tried to play Spotify but it wasn't coming out my headphones. (I later found out, it was coming out my phone and I had woken up Jonny... ooops!) I played my Harrison Chill Yoga class and set the Nike Run Club to 5km. I ran down my alley and to English Bay and back. I forgot how much I love just getting up and running out the door. I love to be out by the ocean and just thinking and moving.
I was surprised that I wasn't winded. I kept a quick pace and wasn't out of breath. I felt good. I am going to book some more runs into my schedule for this week.
Things I thought about:
- Since I just finished reading Barbarian Days, I was thinking, why do I live here? The ocean is so flat. I almost escaped when I lived in Indo and almost stayed there... but came home for my mom. I need to live somewhere where I can get up and surf in the morning. Although, it is too late for me now... I am old. There is no hope. I wasted my time. That is depressing.
- There are two boats still on the shore from that wind storm we had a month ago. Were they drug running boats? How come the owner or the city hasn't cleaned them up?
- I should get a boat.
- Can I live in Squamish? I would miss this run. I can always move back. I am not selling, just renting. I guess I would find some new runs there, I just hope I don't run into any bears.
- There is a cool dancing spot.
- I could do my yoga on the kids park - no one is there this early in the morning. I am too tired today... or lazy.. but maybe the next time. Maybe Carrie will come and meet me.
