The road leads back to you

Well, I have officially started my running obsession again. I have FINALLY broken in the new shoes, that caused me to walk like an old man and cause multiple days of pain. But hey, its worth it! I have just discovered map my run, an online way to track how far you run. It is like google directions for your feet! This morning I ran 4.02 miles and I couldn't feel better! My friend Barb said 95% of the battle is getting on your shoes and getting out the door - well, she couldn't be more right!

I also love to run without headphones sometimes. It gives me the opportunity to really hear the world around me and become one with my 30+ minutes by myself. I also love the fact that Miranda and I have a pact to call each other no later than 6:30am every morning to keep on track. Well, it is day two of the morning exercise and I am excited to head out tomorrow morning. I just have to make sure to keep the paths interesting, the tunes new and the water when I get back cool.

I considered this morning while running down W Paces Ferry to run into the houses that line the peaceful street and say "get up and get moving!!" I just couldn't stand that people were wasting the opportunity to see the day when it was actually bearable to be outside. Well, there is always tomorrow morning for them.

Have a great day and you all should do one thing that inspires you to say "HEY! Get up and get moving!!" Or at the very least, get up. I know that can sometimes be the hardest part!
