DAY: Two

TIME: 4:54

I slowed down by a second. That’s disappointing. But the way my legs felt this morning walking up the steps from the subway, I realized beating yesterday’s time would be a challenge.

I wore a hat today so that the brim would block my view of the floor numbers. That helped. Because yesterday one of the things I really hated was seeing the floor number at every landing. It only reminded me how much farther I had to go. Funny the way that works. It never seems to make you think how many floors you’ve finished, only how many you have left. I guess when it comes to running 20 flights of stairs, the glass is always half empty.

See you tomorrow. I imagine it’ll be in tougher still.
