I just keep posting like crazy, but lately I have found so much to write about.  So read if you want I guess! ;)
Last night I ran.  And can I tell you something...after that half marathon I did last year, I ran only a few times.  I didnt lose any weight running (back then) and although I liked it, I didn't really love it.
Until last night.
So yesterday I had to take care of some car stuff and couldn't go to my morning aerobics class.  All day I wanted to work out, but things just kept coming up.  I was determined to do something and ran into a friend at the store who said a group was going running at night.  I decided to meet up with them.  Something must have happened at the last minute and no one could come anymore, but I still went.
I ran all through my neighborhood.  Maybe it was that I was getting away/out of the house from my naughty kids (and they were especially naughty last night).  Maybe it was that I had no music, just the sound of silence where I could collect my thoughts.  Maybe it was that this time running I am in shape and can actually RUN.
But I ran.  And when I was done, I didn't want to be done.  I realized I could keep going, so I did.  I did the whole pattern through my neighborhood again.  I wasn't ready to be done, but my hubby was sick so I decided to come in and check on him.  
But I ran.  And it.was.AWESOME!  I loved every second of it.  I was faster than last time.  It was so relaxing and refreshing at the same time.  It was just so great.  And I came home refreshed and renewed.  I can run, I can run!  ;)

Running is the best type of cardio. It's just you and the ground. It's also really nice to do something for yourself and have some alone time.
I love running I love running I love running! Maybe that's why I often do it twice a day! I love running I love running I love running. Except for fartleks this morning. Ugh. But I love running! So, how about coming down Jan 27th and doing London's run with me again?
