Downtown Sandusky 10 to Anderson-

I have spent the last day in a state of depression about the world, life, and my relationship and interactions with other people. My stomach has been bothering me lately, I'm sick of arguing, I really hate people right now, and I spent the entire run on some weird depression/rage trip. I sort of debated sealing myself off from the world, and for heaven's sake, stopping paying attention to politics. Heck, if this is how I feel after things turn out in my favor, how will I be able to handle it if they don't? Maybe I just need something productive to do so I stop thinking so much. I also need to stop being a sissy and caring what other people think about me.

Oh yeah, the run.... I went sort of fast but it took me a couple miles before I noticed it. I didn't stop very much for traffic; this was a day where I hit all the lights. I had some stomach issues toward the end. I suppose I'm also not in great shape at the moment for what it's worth. I had the wind in my face on the way out, so I negative split by about a minute even though I felt as though I was a little less angry toward the end. About a mile away from my house, it started to lightly rain and it felt nice to run in this weather.

I felt better after I finished running than I had all day.
