The morning walk/run

A horrible dream and I was up before the birds this morning. Decided to get the run prep over before the rest of the day got on my case and it was an awesome decision.

Campus was calm, serene - security is good and now there is lighting in all corners. With sufi music and Shubha Mudgal on the iPod, pedometer recording 95% aerobic steps, campus all to myself, it was a spiritual experience. Saw two rats chasing each other through thickets.....funny sight from far enough!

Saw the film crew shooting on campus at one end. The whole process looks pretty unglamourous in real life - hats off to them for making it look so amazing on screen. It was cold and windy and can't be fun day in and day out for the crew....the lights were so powerful that the rays radiated out in the sky, over the trees when I saw it from the football field.

7,553 aerobic steps including 2 running rounds of the 400 mt track. Good day and it is only 6:30 am! Wonder if I can be ambitious enough to make this a daily thing, regardless of the marathon. God know I need the peaceful time to myself, this feeling of well being AND the weight loss! :-D

G'morning!
