Hurricane coming

The weather today is best described as "filthy". I was filming this morning so was going to go out running this afternoon but in this weather I wouldn't be doing myself any favours. As I drove back from filming I was listening to the radio which of course was replaying 9/11 ten years ago. Some of the stories were heartbreaking and it brought back the memories of that tragic day 10 years ago. It also made me reflect on life and what's important. My blog is based around achieving stretching goals, motivating others and raising money for charity. But certain events remind you how precious life is and how wars solves nothing. In the words of the late Edwin Star; "war, what is it good for? Absolutely nothing, say it again"! How true.
Tomorrow I'll get out for a run but the tail end of the hurricane may change my plans. On Friday I am away to a three day running camp and that should be fun / tough! No matter what, life must go on.
