Today I facilitated the after school running club with another teacher. A few sixth graders showed up, who were very energetic and sweet. The running club started last Wednesday, so the group is inexperienced, but they seem to be committed. Even though we only ran 1.5 slow miles, it was a great way to end the school day.
After the students were picked up, I drove to the track and ran two miles. While I was there, I saw my old high school cross country coach and we started chatting. I told him that I was planning on running the Hartford Marathon this fall. What was I thinking??? I still can't figure out why I said that. Maybe I was excited about talking "running talk" with someone who really understands or maybe I was verbalizing positive thinking or maybe I just wanted him to be proud of me for still running. Who knows!!
