happy birthday america

the strand was littered with empty porches and there i was lacing up my brooks preparing for an early morning run.  last year at this time i was swearing i'd never drink again. construction men hard at work in my head and contemplating a bloody mary to ease the pain.  after all  "the hair of the dog".  
but not today,  today i was one of "them"

 i was an early morning runner.

i ran the 10 mile loop i have run a million times prior. but somehow at 5 am on a july 4th weekend it felt different.  a little more liberating, a little less about everyone else and a little more about me. 

a short little lesson on discipline and sweet reward. 

oh and if waking up at 5 on a holiday weekend to go running wasn't bad enough i just gave up my parking spot just now to get in a swim at the gym.

who is this person???????
