Dawn run: I’m heading east, into the sun. Coyotes yelp along the river, crows crank out their rusty mating calls, and all is well. . .well, I’m slower than I’ve ever been, and often these mornings there’s a different glitch, in my knees or elsewhere, but that’s all right.

Interesting article, Graham.   Thanks for sharing.

When I was in Dublin recently I met a neighbour of my sister's who was out cutting grass with a push mower, edging and tidying and turning over her vegetable patch ... turns out she is a 93 year old 5000k masters runner ... been running all her life.   She was fit as a fiddle and looked no older or frailer than any of us.   So, the point about just continuing on being active does really resonate and make sense for how we want these later years to go. 

Enjoy the summer!
