so i love running. i was talking about this earlier with a fellow runner, and the list of things that i love about running is almost endless. i love waking up with the thought of running foremost in my mind, i love the ritual of getting ready for a run (even brushing my teeth in preparation is more fun), i love that moment when the run begins and everything seems possible, i love that minute a few minutes into the run when the rhythm takes over, i love the way my mind works when i'm running, i love hearing the footfalls, i love how time seems to pause as the miles click away, i love making that last turn knowing full well that the finish line is close, and i love that feeling of accomplishment that comes at the end. this is the short list of the things i love about running.
i learned something today, though. i also love the difference in a morning run an afternoon run! this morning, i ran until i felt complete, enjoying that motivation and energy that comes with a morning run. this afternoon (celebrating class being canceled with a run somehow made sense to me), i felt cleansed, relieved, and like all of my thoughts got processed.
isn't running the best?
