Lucky Me

On this mornings run I once again thought how lucky I am. These are the reasons why…

• I can run
• I like to run (most days)
• My family don’t mind (much) that I fall out of bed at 6 am on a Sunday and then out the door to catch the best time of the day
• The morning was beautiful
• I get to run in scenery like this
• I get to see cows usually before I smell them
• I can stop to smell this which is better than the above
• I saw not another human being, just rabbits and cows
• The only noise was the crows and as long as I did not think about Alfred Hitchcock movies I was fine
• I ran over the River Otter pausing to appreciate its beauty
• Lucky that after VLM the poor old body, toes, legs can still manage 9 miles without too much complaining.
• On arrival at home I discovered how really lucky I was, with the evidence on my sleeve left by a low flying bird!

Off to purchase a lottery ticket.
