After Tuesday's SPLAT, I decided to skip out on running Thursday to give my bruised knee a little time to return to its normal color. I must admit, I missed running! And as I knew would happen, it was a little difficult to get up and at it today (routine was broken!). Nevertheless, I went for a short run and it was good! Back on schedule! Also, I must quickly note a correction to an earlier post. I didn't see the Phanatic statue at the Art Museum last weekend because...there isn't one!
On another note, Gina sent me this quote last week, from former Flyers player Bobby Clarke. Friday's game should be a beautiful reminder to never give up hope, and to keep on believing...whether it's couch potato committing to a half-marathon or a group of halloween-colors clad gentlemen who may or may not have all their teeth.
"I like running because it's a challenge. If you run hard, there's
the pain - and you've got to work your way through the pain. You
know, lately it seems all you hear is? Don't overdo it' and? Don't
push yourself.' Well, I think that's a lot of bull. If you push the
human body, it will respond."
- Bob Clarke
