Life, motherf*cker” - I love this recent quote from pro runner Des Linden as spring and summer races cancel. I’ve been in the habit of only posting about my running on race days, when I’ve crossed a tangible finish line. In reality, running is a big part of my every day life, and only a small fraction of those days include finish lines. With racing being on hold for awhile many of us are asking ourselves...why am I still training? Why do I run in the first place? For me, it’s the consistency structured training brings to my life, being on a journey of the pursuit of progress, and the community of strong humans it’s introduced me to. Not to mention Penelope would be very cranky without her morning miles, so that makes two of us! https://www.streetsandstartlines.com/blog/running-in-the-epicenter-of-a-pandemic monthly 0.5 2021-07-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed810b81ce30c438d5e875d/1592766431457-15LK28U6M39SYJMX6MA6/https%3A%2F%2Fphotos.google.com%2Fshare%2FAF1QipOiBUO4CEl_N84eRKu9tPao3UmNiDYbkvNJD6ZdzHxtqv4n3hVKOUpDDwtggGbwVA%2Fphoto%2FAF1QipOSbIA1EkPqe0aX6owryKHJeM8VA0sl4CdccHBT%3Fkey%3DS29VSUI0aHhxbVVUbXpTTTVja0JZYmgtVDBhOUJ3 Blog - Living [and running] in the epicenter of a pandemic Have you ever tried to go for a run and hold your breath at the same time? Living in NYC during a pandemic makes me appreciate my time with the pavement more than ever - giving me something to look forward to and provides some structure to my week in a time where it's becoming increasingly hard to hold boundaries. Boundaries with turning off work, turning off the zoom happy hours, and carving out time for yourself. And after staring at a laptop screen all day in my tiny apartment, I welcome the fresh air miles, even with a face covering. This has been my running look most days, pulling my buff up and down as I pass other runners - on a sunny spring day in Brooklyn, this is every few seconds. I'm frustrated by how many people I pass, how many times I have to pull up my buff and breathe hot air. I found myself hoping for more rainy days than not, because it meant less people on my running routes. But as time passed, I began to see this more as a symbol of hope - that moment when the runner on the other side of the sidewalk pulls up their mask at the same time - a subtle reminder we're not going through this alone. https://www.streetsandstartlines.com/blog/back-to-base-camp monthly 0.5 2021-01-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed810b81ce30c438d5e875d/1593285722133-SXDY4LOU56SEOG5CW2F8/B2D881BF-5DFD-4CA2-9C2D-70296B206E22.jpg Blog -
