Unexpected Pleasure

Consistent running is garnering the most obvious benefits...I'm getting in much better shape. I fully appreciate having the time to do this.

The running is good for health, but yesterday I had a wonderfully warm and unexpected benefit. Stride for stride I fell in with two other runners, an Indonesian man and woman. I have seen them before and have been impressed by their speed stamina. Tono has just returned from the New York marathon. Nini is training for the Singapore 42km. and they are both planning on running the Tokyo marathon.

To make such friends or acquaintances while doing something I enjoy so much is very, very fine. I look forward to seeing Nini and Tono again and follow their progress through the upcoming events.
