Runner's Lounge Book Project

Back in January Runner's Lounge came up with an idea to publish a book filled with motivational stories from all us runners and I told you about this in a January 31st blog post titled Toy Story under the "My Story" section. They asked that we keep it under wraps and that it would be the property of the book. The plan for the book has taken a different direction so our stories will not be published in a book but are now posted under the "Inspirations and Stories" section of their website. Be sure to check out my contribution "Soul Full of Consequences" !

Heart's In It...Body Isn't

I would rather be out there where the sun is shining bright this morning but I feel like I've been pulled through a rat hole and pushed back out again! Back in October, a post entitled Running Transcends told how running crosses over into the creative side of me. I shared some scrapbooking pages and mentioned I wrote some poems and may share a poem one day! Well, today's the day! Today my heart's in it...but my body isn't!

Best Kind of Coffee

Sixty minutes and ten kilometers are done,
Running with friends is always so much fun!

It’s time to relax take a load of our feet,
Muffin and coffee we’ll have that deserved treat!

Second Cup, Good Earth a café on some street,
Banff, Calgary, Canmore neat places to meet!

Fashion or politics what’s making the news,

We share our varying opinions and views!

Our ears our hearts with support each of us lends,
Nothing beats running and coffee with great friends!
