Getting ready to run the 2010 James Joyce Ramble 10K race, about which I am so excited! Preparing includes brushing up on the author's works. Doubliners is most familiar to me. I also can't help but harken back to the following Joyce words:
I am tomorrow, or some future day, what I establish today. I am today what I established yesterday or some previous day.
How true are those words? Presently, they are quite relevant in that I am anxious to beat my 2009 Ramble time of 1:09:54, and to see where I now stand vis-a-vis my 1/2 marathon that now is just over 9 weeks away. Those words also fit nicely into my remaking.
Those words remind me that every day counts, and is critical to who I was, am, and will be. Yesterday's, today's, and tomorrow's runs matter.
