Grisly

Been a bit busy and just haven't gotten around to posting but as always the workouts do go on! Thursday was a hill run, which went really well, and Friday I started stage 4 of New Rules. This morning I had 14 kilometers on my long run schedule and since Stefaan wasn't interested in running so long, I got up and got out to get it done on my own:



As I was running along one of the paths that are so familiar to me, I couldn't help thinking of the runners in another suburban community on the other side of Brussels who made a grisly and tragic discovery on their run earlier this week - along their usual running path they found the body of a four-year-old boy whose throat had been slit. His body had been dumped along the trail. So hard to believe and yet it did really happen, just half a kilometer from his home, and what is even harder to believe is that apparently his mother did it. How terribly sad that such things happen, and that children are so vulnerable, even in their own families...
