THE UPCOMING WILLIAMSBURG BRIDGE CHALLENGE, PENGUINS AND OTHER THINGS

i felt better and ran wed, thurs, fri morning.

on friday i tried running withough my ipod because i left my nano at the office.
i thought i would give up sooner, having no pain distraction, but i surprisingly ran even longer as i was unaware of time passing.

i ran towards wall street, weaving in and out of the oncoming traffic of corporate penguins pottering towards work.

i am amused.

i wonder what each of them are thinking.
i wonder if they have stories like mine, loves like mine, places they left behind to be here - but all different ofcourse, because these things are theirs not mine.

i think about how in the next half an hour, i will hop into the shower, and put on my own penguin suit - though because i work in advertising i am given the perogative to dress up like a dolphin or seahorse if i so desire.

but we all do pretty much the same thing.

not running today because rob has decided to do what he calls the "williamsburg challenge" tomorrow sunday and i decided to join him. what both us amateur runners will be challenging each other is to run across the williamsburg bridge and back.

small feat to most but i think it will be quite challenging for us, ok me.

will report back.
