Flying Lessons (Social Facilitation Part III)

So it was great to have a running partner today, we’ll call him KHK. I thought I would joining him for 7 miles on his 9 mile run. KHK showed up and surprised me, “We’re actually going for flying lessons,” which is pretty cool, except this admission came at mile 5, and it sounded more like, “We did that last mile in like 7 minutes,” we were flying alright! Funny thing was, I struggled a bit, but it was nice to unwind the legs and see what they could do. Let’s be clear, my ‘lower stomach’ promptly voiced its disapproval, and I am curious to see if I can walk tomorrow, but unless this derails the whole attempt, it was worth it to feel that High School CC feeling again. So next Wednesday, I’ll do my best to earn my wings again with KHK, Icarus be damned.
