The Road Ain't All That Smooth

 
This picture came from my run today.  On Sundays, I bring Tj and a friend to Latin tutoring in Milton - by Blue Hills, and it's so beautiful and peaceful around there.  I dropped them off, and came prepared to go for a run/walk.  (My run sections are becoming easier and easier by the way!).   I was about half-way through, and running more and more each time, and just looked ahead at the long road ahead - still so far to go.  I was thinking about life, and while (quoted from the Stones' Memory Motel) "The Road Ain't All that Smooth" - the journey is still breathtaking, as you can see by this picture.

We all have our 26.2's.  All have things we're working on, trying to get better at, goals we're working toward.  Today, I'm a few more steps toward my 26.2.  Still a long way to go, and I don't expect the road to be smooth (in fact both my soleus muscles are screaming at me tonight - thank God it's time for a yoga/swim cross training day!), but we'll get there, one step at a time.
