As the coronavirus floats to the summit of my novel fears, I thought about a few things today on my neighborhood run:
2 mile easy + 13 x ~300m hill repeats + 1.5 mile easy (no humans besides E)
This shake on normalcy has brought about an uneasy feeling to my often self-criticized normalized training. The need to control every portion of my regimen has created a too high, too thick dam of stiffness that slowly curates a precise way of thinking. At times, I can't help but remember the limitless that comes with naivete.
Normalcy should be critiqued as much as possible, and when imprecise distributions are seen, we should embrace them. Yet, a pang of embarrassment weakens me when I note the stresses and anxieties I experience when I am unable to adapt to such natural disruptions in my regimen. But what can you expect, I am a product of this routine-controlling culture, and it takes patience to think and stray away. As a participant of life, I must keep both eyes peeled of such hegemony in order to jig when we are taught to run.
Somehow I still don't feel like I adequately explained myself, but perhaps it's because I've been on this screen for too long. As the note-taking become denser, I hope to share polished conclusions I've come up with.
The week has been recorded as follows:
With sanitized hands,
me
