Sparkle and my morning routine now includes some jogging. I’ve decided to steal back a small fragment of my day and by getting up a half an hour earlier I’m hoping to squeeze in a longer stroll — or three times a week — a five kilometer run in the nearby park. Tomorrow will be day one, though we’ve been getting up earlier for a few days now. The poor dog doesn’t know what she’s in for, that’s certain. This morning on our march I was intrigued by the sounds of the Anthony Henday dropping from afar and into the park. The open field must act as a giant sound collector, amplifying the traffic noises that a virtually unnoticeable even just a block away at our house. And I only hear it in the mornings, too. Maybe the whir of traffic will keep me going for that thirty minute jog at such an uninviting hour, pre-breakfast and pre-coffee, and with an unsuspecting canine in tow. |
