RUN 182 - Back to the Lake

The draw of this beautiful lakefront is so immense to me as a runner, having to wait 3/4 days to get here is heart wrenching.  Running demands so much mental strength and motivation, theres something comforting about running with such a massively powerful natural body.  Much like the coastal marathons I've run the last few months, being in the presence of such beauty, power and tranquility seems like the perfect accompaniment to the act of running itself.  I've never run in an environment more consistently motivating and emotive as the Lake Michigan... each step along its ever changing shoreline is a gift to be cherished.
