Yesterday I recounted my tale of trail running and posted this picture. I love this sign it's like life's signpost. There is no easy path in life. It might start out easy but the easy way always leads to difficulties.
Why am I reposting the picture other than because I like it?
I'm recounting my story to a coworker about being tired and sweaty and after 4 miles of running encountering this sign. In the story I wuss out and take the Hard path to the left instead of the Harder path to the right.
Much like life when I took the easier path I wasn't paying attention to the arrows. Something occurred to me as I held up my phone for the umpteenth (that's a highly technical measurement) time. Left was HARDER. Right was hard. I went left. Shit.
On the bright side I was already looking forward to trying it again. Now I really want another shot. No 5k beforehand and take the RIGHT turn and it should be even more fun.
Dumbass.
