Invasion

The temperature this morning when I left for my run was already 80 degrees. And I didn't sleep well last night, so I was definitely dreading the next 2 hours. But this is summertime in Dallas, and it sucks. Maybe I should have stayed in bed.

I saw 4 bunnies on the trail today, which is more than double what I normally see, a bunny invasion if you will. I always take a bunny count for Eddie. He likes to hear about them when I get home.

This is Eddie. He loves (to eat) bunnies.

There was an invasion of another sort as well, runners. There was a 5k that ran through the park with dogs and strollers and other things to dodge. I run this route to avoid hassle and crowds, I usually only see the same 10 people every week. The heat plus the annoyance really wore me out. I stopped at a secluded bench for a few minutes to recharge since everything had broken down, my form, my mental focus, my will to live.

Ultimately I crossed the finish line of the 5k that I loathed and those lovely people cheered for me.
