On the Aftermath of Running

February 1, 2011

I get this feeling of standing on the edge of a high cliff and looking out over an abyss every time I complete a long run. It’s located nowhere in particular – just a brown cliff and nothing in front of me except a dark haze in the distance. These are not the long Sunday training runs that I am talking about. I’m talking about the organized runs – the marathons, half marathons, ultras. I’ve not run many – but whenever I have completed one, this image stays in my head for around a week. It’s always present whatever I am doing. Slowly, it dissipates and the other things in my life take over. Till the next marathon.
