Today, 12/21/2011, was a beautiful day - very balmy outside - around 55 Fahrenheit, or 12 Celsius. I decided to go for a short run up by the Lead Mines. I started at the parking lot on Barnaslingan road and took the walking loop up by the Lead Mines. This proved to be a 30 min run. I found some great places to run up there. The views were great from the top of the lead mines.
Severasl days ago I was knocked out of commission it seemed due to injuring my Achilles tendon. However, after Martin Nolan (plays the Iallan pipes for Ilona) offered to pray for my leg - I sure did accept - I wouldn't be surprised if that played a large part of it. Today there was no pain while running. I felt incredibly privileged to be able do this run in such a short time - I was worried that I'd be out of action for a lot longer. For the past 3 days or so I have gone down to the local gym to work on the elliptical trainer and the nautilus weights, so today when I surprised myself by being able to run with very little pain or discomfort I was so blessed. I also felt the benefit of 'fresh legs' - which all added to making this run a top notch run for sure!
