“Life is always going to be hooking you…When I really get hooked and I’m starting to get worked up… I might say to myself, “If I follow this, what will be the result? The habituation of strengthening this pattern. What will be the result? What will be happening to me in a year’s time? In two years time? This pain I’m trying to get away from will be more.” – Pema Chodron

Dan was our photographer for the day, but we were running so fast, he almost didn’t catch us on camera

Dan finally told us we were supposed to be running. Clearly, we didn’t listen.
The Agony…
…and the Ecstasy of crossing the finish line!
The 10k ended at the Hermitage Museum Court Yard.
Очень серьезные!
We pause to think about being really really ridiculously good looking while sipping a pint.
