When I get off of this mountain

 It has occurred the continuation of this hobby in its present form may have to change.  Being beat up, injured, or master shuffling around at 12-15 minute miles is down right slow.  The mind has convinced itself those times are especially good in seeking entertainment in a 100 mile.  After today’s 5.1 mile effort in the middle of 14 - 15 minute miles, the final curtain is nigh. 

 The process will continue.  The sun rises and the sun sets.  As much as having something on the horizon provides a modicum of incentive, it also feels foolish at this point.  Perhaps there are fresher fields out there.  Maybe other forces are in play behind the scenes.  There is no willing it to get better, when the better is sub 12 minute miles.  Bear Bryant said it, “Be good, or be gone.”
