Nirvana.

4.8 k, (3 miles) - 23.05 min

Just managed to fit a run in between the morning and afternoon going-outs.

I haven't even run a week since resuming regular running routine but that 'walking on air' feeling, it was already with me. The nirvana of running and being yourself and not yourself, being here and elsewhere.

Even despite the occasional lunging and stopping of the young Belka.

It feels a bit like this, okay, it's not Nirvana, it's Take Five, but still —

Slow approach of runner

4.8 km (3 miles) - 23.08 min

I am slowly returning to running after a long break.
What a joy!

And meet my new running buddy — Belka, an unusual Retriver-New Foundland cross. At her tender 17 months she weighs 30 kilos and is full of bouncing energy.

She has trouble learning 'heel' but clearly enjoys running.


'Slow approach of runner' is a paraphrase of the title of Konstantin Paustovsky's book 'Slow Approach of Thunder'.
