Runner’s diary Tuesday

It is a beautiful morning — big, open sky, with a warm breeze and bright sun, just a perfect morning for a run.

So, I took advantage, chugging out three miles while listening to the wonderful new album by Son Volt, American Central Dust.

My only regret this morning is that I'm not up to the kind of distance this kind of morning deserves, that seven- or eight-mile run that allows you to fall into an almost trance-like zone, that leaves you feeling one with all around you.

That's something to shoot for, to get back there. Yes, a goal worth pursuing.
