COVID, week 43 + deference
Happy new year. Does it feel different yet?
I thought today would be an appropriate time to publish my 2020 running annual report, wherein I’d do a deep dive on my training and running over the past year (which, spoiler, there’s a lot of).
For this being a running blog and all, I really haven’t talked much about my training lately because given the gravity of All That Happened in 2020, I say it lovingly, but … who the hell cares about my running, right?
And then today happened. While I remind myself that Georgia also happened today, I simply can’t shake the former right now.
The bandwidth just isn’t there right now.

After the last 9 months, I can’t believe that I feel that yesterday was one of the worst days of my lifetime like Sept 11, 2001. I’m just glad there were not more deaths at the Capitol. Sadly, there were almost 4000 COVID deaths because of this shit show.
One ray of hope from Stacey Abrams on Twitter “While today’s terrible display of terror and meanness shakes us, let’s remember: @ossoff, Jewish son of an immigrant & @ReverendWarnock, first Black Senator from Georgia, will join a Catholic POTUS & the first woman, Black + Indian VP in our nation’s capital. God bless America.”
Totally agree, Erica. It’s forever going to be one of those “where were you when ___” situations that stays with all of us for the rest of our lives.
And +1 on your link; I linked it above, too! One day, we will have to collectively celebrate that monumental win because it was lost in the insurrection on 1/6.
