No physical pain with my run this morning.
Much to see along the way.
The tiny train wasn't running yet. The zoo isn't open until later this morning. 4 lady geese stood next to the tracks. They seemed to be waiting for a ride.
Just past the fountains, an ancient man in white pants and belted robe silently practiced tai chi sending two massive red fans through swirls and sworls as a chiseled young man sat on a stone bench near him. His head was bowed in what...meditation? anguish? sleep? prayer?
The Park People were rising from their nests. I'm starting to recognize some of them.
I wonder if any of them can achieve real rest out there. In the open. In this heat.

An attempt to pull it all together in one place. Let's see how long this lasts.

- Kansan transplanted to Texas. I started distance running in my 40's and ran my first marathon at 52. I started collecting running injuries and decided it's no longer the hobby for me. Writing and photography provide escape from the escape that running was supposed to be.
