Day 17

I'm in Austin and decided to wake up before everyone else. It is somewhat peaceful in the morning when everyone else is asleep. However, my thoughts are not peaceful because I am dreading this run, like a dread every run. I am dreading this run more because I accidental cut my ankle the night before. But I brave it, lace up and started running this morning.

Although I dread running, I must say that I am enjoying running in different cities. It has forced me to not get use to my surroundings and has made me more patient. The path that I run in Kansas City, I am so familiar with it, I seem to know every tree, every crack in the sidewalk, and every building. These serves as my reminders of how close I am to finishing. When I run in an unfamiliar location, I don't have that luxury and I must continue to on until I reached my destination. There was nothing that was noteworthy of this run. I did beat the heat, which I was ever so greatful for!
