Running is its own distinct thing. Devotional and prayer like in its deepest practice - distance runners find absorption in the details of their run. At a certain point steps and earth meet in a third existence belong to their common ground. It's here where everything merges. We experience an intimate connection with our surroundings and find a seamless flow breath and air - the infinite literally drawn within our bodies. These are fleeting moods bestowed by grace and nature - a whim urged by the consistency of our steps. Yet we know they're here and might at anytime be given. It's the promise of every run.
Peace,
Eric
