good 7-mi loop . . . near-life experience

3rd time in 3 days is the charm!  ran as strong as yesterday and felt like i had plenty left in the last mile so i stepped it up and stepped it out.

i almost died today.  literally.  i was crossing this road and looked right, clear, and i guess i didn’t look left.  there were 2 cars abreast coming at me at about 45 mph.  i didn’t alter my pace, my heart rate didn’t accelerate . . . i knew that i would make it, all things remaining constant.  and i made it, by less than a second.  i felt the cars pass right behind me . . . they didn’t slow down.  :-P

i am crazy.  anyone else would have had a heart attack.

    Columbus, OH? Thought you were headed west? To quote Crush, the turtle from “Finding Nemo”: “You have some serious thrill issues dude”! As for the running, sounds like you’re on a roll.
