Can I come too?
Aug 11, 2021
A runner passes the office window. Tarmac outside but he’s heading for the hills. Breaking free of the road and off the beaten track.
Must work harder on my running, I lament. Must get back up on the hills and onto the trails. I’ve been taking it too easy of late, too lazy, too tired.
No pain, no gain. No effort, no improvement.
The longing to step away from the computer, swap office cotton and leather for polyester and Vibram.
Mister, wait up?
