If we really want to get rid of suffering, completely and totally, then clinging has to go. The spiritual path is never one of achievement; it is always one of letting go. The more we let go, the more there is empty and open space for us to see reality. Because what we let go of is no longer there, there is the possibility of just moving without clinging to the results of the movement. As long as we cling to the results of what we do, as long as we cling to the results of what we think, we are bound, we are hemmed in.

Back down to earth

Got cold again.  Ran at night, the weather was about 2+C along with about 30km / hr wind.  All feels fine and it seems pretty relaxed with good posture and steps.  Happy with all of that. 

Nice work with GU also.  Took it 15m before run with water, seemed to be very useful for the exact time frame as advertised. 

We'll see if I run tomorrow.  I feel I'm about ready for just maybe two more days and then total rest and preparation.  This was a good run to get some sense back into it all.
